Ricke Williams on Authentic Networking | Hot Stories Cambridge

No Mood Hoovers Allowed: Ricke Williams on Purpose-Driven Networking | Hot Stories Cambridge

At Hot Stories Cambridge, Ricke Williams, the dynamic founder of Cadre Rocket Networking, delivered an inspiring and unapologetic look at what real networking should be: supportive, high-energy, and emotionally intelligent.

With vibrant honesty and humour, Ricke reminded us that our environments matter—and who we spend time with can either elevate or drain us.

“I don’t spend time with mood hoovers, bubble-popping joy killers or positivity vampires. They’re banned from my life.”

🚀 What is Cadre Rocket?

Ricke Williams

“Cadre” means a team of specialists capable and willing to train others.
“Rocket” means we move fast—with purpose and impact.

Ricke has built a networking community where:

  • No one pretends to be the smartest in the room

  • “Monopoly of Knowledge” sessions dive deep into ideas, test concepts, and grow together

  • Guest speakers are challenged and inspired by real discussion

  • Locations are intentionally chosen for energy and connection:
    🍕 Pizza Pilgrims (for casual deep-dive convos)
    🏉 Shelford Rugby Club (for sporting spirit & camaraderie)
    🏢 Pinnacle House Peterborough (for East of England synergy)

💡 Not Just Networking—It’s Strategic Growth

Forget the business-card carousel. Cadre Rocket is about:

  • Creating real advocates

  • Strengthening your emotional intelligence

  • Improving bottom-line impact

  • Operating in a psychologically safe environment where ideas and people grow

“Networking isn’t about top-line inputs. It’s about the people who drive your bottom-line growth and your mindset.”
