Is Networking a Lost Art?

I absolutely love Angela’s energy and learned a lot from her presentation. In fact, I’ve passed what I’ve learned along to many others! I’ve got our whole team wearing our name tags on the correct side now.

The Art of In-person Networking

Before LinkedIn, Facebook, and the plethora of other online social networks there was in-person networking.

Networking in-person can be intimidating and scary especially if it is not a natural comfort zone for you. Imagine being able to walk into a room feeling confident and empowered to walk up to someone you don’t know, shake hands, introduce yourself and have instant rapport.

Networking and in particular, in-person networking, will not only help build your brand quickly, it will provide you with opportunities to identify and develop partnerships that are mutually beneficial.

How would you rate your networking skills?

Do you scan a room before entering?
Which side does your nametag go on?
Who do you introduce first? (Yes, there is an order)
How do you balance a purse, hold a plate, beverage and napkin and still be able to shake hands?

If you don’t know the answers, or aren’t sure, my networking and protocol session will teach you the basic networking skills that will allow you to master any room you enter, even if you consider yourself shy or extremely introverted.

You will learn how to:

Enhance your presence during a variety of social and business situations
Correctly introduce everyone in a business setting, including yourself
The Dos and Don’ts of working a room full of people you don’t know
Prepare you for small talk
