Join us for a hands-on networking workshop with Sue Henry, co-author of Accelerate. Sue will provide you with essential networking know-how!

Many people misinterpret networking at functions and events for small talk when it can be a powerful career and business building tool.

At this interactive and fun session we examine the networking fundamentals required for business today including:

This practical workshop covers:
The key elements to successful networking.
The importance of maintaining contact with those that you meet and the simple tools and strategies to assist.
Understanding networking functions, people's behaviour and creating opportunities.
Creating effective budgets for networking.
Learn the secrets of making new contacts in a short amount of time.
Mastering the relationship and maintaining the balance of face-to-face, e-mail and phone contacts.
The tools and resources for effective networking.

The basic premise of this workshop is to enable the participants to identify their individual strengths and challenges and to set an immediate course of action for improvement. Specifically we will focus on their role within the company and how their networking behaviours, skills and knowledge impact the success of their career and the company. This practical workshop covers three core aspects Goals & Motivation, Networking Fundamentals and Mastering Relationships.

This workshop will conclude at 12pm, to be followed by lunch and networking.

This session is a follow-on to the regular Small Business Book Club.
