Toolkit One
Reflect - Identify the critical networks at your fingertips.
When it comes to being a small business owner, there are a lot of tools that can help to ensure you are supported and empowered in day-to-day operations.
Consider some of the people in your current network; how you can connect, support each other and share learnings and strategies, can be the key to unlocking support that can enhance your business and motivate you to look after your own mental health and wellbeing.
The new Ahead for Business digital hub includes a host of new features and useful information for small business, including the interactive Networking Toolkit.
This toolkit is part of recommendations made by the Small Business Wellbeing and Support Policy Team (Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources), following collaboration with small business and mental health representatives.
It has been designed to provide tips and guidance on how to explore your current connections and networks to make the most of the support networks available to you.
By simply taking the time to reflect on the people you have in your networks, how you can strengthen existing relationships and new areas to tap into, you can discover a new supportive network that can help you and your business.
Whether you have a small or large network of personal and professional people, there’s always a benefit in growing and strengthening these relationships.
