The Social Capital Method

The Social Capital Method

You are great at what you do. Your reputation is solid. Your network looks strong on paper. So why isn't all of it producing more referrals, more pipeline, more visibility, or the next-level moves you have been working toward? The Social Capital Method™ is the podcast for high-performing professionals, founder-led business owners, and consultants ready to turn relationships into measurable revenue, referrals, and real influence (no transactional networking or post-more-on-LinkedIn advice). Hosted by Sabine Gedeon, ICF Professional Certified Coach, transformational speaker, and creator of the Social Capital Method™. Every Wednesday, Sabine breaks down the strategies, scripts, and identity-level shifts behind sustainable, relationship-driven growth. This show is for you if you find yourself asking: How do I get more clients without cold outreach? How do I network without feeling fake? How do I increase visibility to the people who can advocate for me in rooms I am not in? How do I follow up without being annoying? How do I get promoted faster? Whether you are growing a business, leading a team, or building influence inside an organization, this is where great work meets the systems and self-leadership that turn it into real momentum. New episodes every Wednesday!

In this episode of The Social Capital Method™, I break down the three roles that form the core of a healthy relationship ecosystem, and how to identify who plays each one in your network.

In this episode of The Social Capital Method™, I walk you through a simple value assessment: getting clear on your skills, strengths, and knowledge, naming your development edges, and using that clarity to invite the right people in your network...

Referrals rarely come from the people you pitch. They come from the people who bring up your name in rooms you're not in. The question is whether you've given anyone a reason to.

In this episode of The Social Capital Method™, I break down how to build a network that creates momentum on its own, and the simple weekly moves that turn your strongest relationships into advocates.

Most people approach networking as a numbers game: more events, more business cards, more LinkedIn connections. That's exactly why so many people dread it, and why it rarely produces results. In this episode of The Social Capital Method™, I break down how ...

Most people only reach out to their network when they need something, and the people on the other end can feel it. The fix starts long before the ask.

In this episode of The Social Capital Method™, I break down why consistent relationship "deposits" make it easier to ask for support when you need it, and why your outreach lands as genuine when you've already been giving.
