Overview
You’ve probably heard about how important professional networks can be, but what if you’ve recently moved to a new area and don’t know anyone? Or you’re changing your focus and your old contacts are all in a different field? Or no one ever introduced you to how to build a network of any kind in the first place? Join us for guidance and focused time to start building a professional network that works for you. Lunch will be provided. Please bring a charged laptop so you can get started building your network during the session!
Learning Goals
- Participants will be able to articulate the scope of a professional network that will be useful for them.
- Participants will be able to start adding one or more people to their network, by identifying and locating people appropriate to their goals and situation.
Speakers
