Topic Descriptions:

October 27: Avoid Common Traps in Networking
We cover the foundations of great networking. If the basics are not done well, you can unknowingly sabotage your best networking efforts.  We look at myths and beliefs around networking and help you create a plan to meet your personal and professional goals.

November 3: Create Meaningful Conversations and Develop Lasting Connections
We address two of the most cited networking challenges: 1) starting a conversation with a stranger and 2) following up afterwards. We also cover sticky situations as well as the etiquette and nuances of great networking, in-person and online.

November 10: In-Person + Online Networking, Put It All Together
You’ll learn how social networking fits with in-person networking efforts in a world of limited time and attention.  We also look at ways to keep momentum going, make the best use of your existing network, and continuously expand your network.
