Structured Networking – We will begin with everyone sharing a 30-second elevator speech. Then everyone present will have a total of 3-4 minutes’ (depending on the number of people present) to focus on you and your goals. Plan to spend 1-2 minutes answering the following questions and then allow 1-2 minutes for the group to respond and offer their help. Your facilitator Gail will guide this process and offer coaching where needed.
- What are you seeking?
- What are your area(s) of expertise?
- What kinds of challenges do you solve and for whom?
- How can you help the group?
- How can the group help you?
