As part of our AMA series earlier in the year, we recorded a session with Daniel Geey (Partner, Sheridans) and Cynthia Mumbo (Founder&CEO, Sports Connect Africa) on how to develop your sports and legal network.

This session was designed to help people develop the human skills (Simon Sinek), which are often mistakenly referred to as "soft skills".The topics which were covered were:
