## Men’s Leadership & Legacy | Ask & Connect Networking

Hosted at NedSpace
Looking for real connections, not awkward networking?
Men’s Leadership & Legacy is a monthly gathering built around simple asks and easy connections. No pitching, no posturing, no forcing conversation.

### How it works (it’s easy):

When you arrive, you’ll write down one thing you could use help with—your ask—on a sheet of paper. It can be big or small, professional or personal. For example:

  • I need a literary agent
  • I’m looking for a great web developer
  • I want to talk with someone who’s started a company
  • I need trusted recommendations in a new city
  • I’m trying to make better professional connections

Your sheet goes up on the wall and gets a number. You’ll wear that same number on your name tag.
Then the fun part:
You’ll walk the wall, read other people’s asks, and choose at least three people you’d like to connect with.
If you want to connect with someone:

  • Write your name and their number on a Post-it
  • Stick it on their sheet

That’s it. No cold intros. No guessing who to talk to.

### Why people like this format

  • Clear signals instead of small talk
  • Easy follow-ups
  • Everyone both asks for help and offers it

### A few important notes

This is not therapy, group processing, or a religious meeting. Faith informs values, but nothing is taught or imposed. The focus is leadership, responsibility, and showing up well for your work and your life.

### Who this is for

  • Men who want meaningful connections
  • Professionals, founders, and creatives
  • Anyone tired of shallow networking events

If you like conversations with purpose—and a format that actually works—you’ll feel at home here

We’ll be starting on time. If you arrive late, check the event comments—we’ll post quick instructions there to help you find us without interrupting the talk.
