Effective networking: develop your
skills, enhance confidence and create wider business opportunities – joint
event with CIPD
Networking
is a key link to enable joint action and collaboration with other businesses
and professionals, as well as improving internal communication within your own
organisation. However, networking brings
with it a host of fears and concerns and bad practice.
This
workshop on networking is dynamic, funny and highly participative. It addresses
some of the difficulties of networking, gives you skills to join groups and
people with ease, develop effective small talk, ask the right business
questions, escape from the rude or boring person, spot the opportunity and deal
with it in the right way and finally follow up effectively and confidently.
Learn
about the preparation and planning, how to answer the question ‘What do you
do?’ and how to represent yourself and your organisation at any function, at
anytime with anybody.
Networking
for the minority is fun, for the rest of us it can be pretty daunting and
scary. This talk will help you understand why and how you can use it to your
advantage to develop your contacts.
