Successful Networking Strategies: Reaping What you Sow May 20, 2009

Professional Women's Association Speaker Event - all women welcome whether members or guests.

Networking is more like farming than hunting. It’s about cultivating relationships with other business professionals: you start by planting seeds; you nurture them over time and reap the rewards after devoting time and energy. Just as you wouldn’t expect to harvest crop promptly after sowing, would you nurture the belief that attending a single networking event will produce immediate results?

Now you have the opportunity to learn the secrets to an abundant networking harvest. Successful networking is a skill, and like any other, it can be learned and competently applied. In this interactive session, Angie will present skills and strategies for effective networking and offer you an immediate opportunity to experience its valuable benefits. She will show you how to develop a plan to transform every networking event into personal success.

Topics will include:
• Who do I know?
• What do I do?
• How do I connect?
• How do I keep the connection?
• Network etiquette – Do’s & Don’ts
