Personal Branding & Networking - Face to Face

When you put yourself out there to expand your network, what impression do people walk away with after they have met you?

This training course will help you discover your personal brand, and how it will support your networking success. We provide a lively, practical approach to learning tools and techniques to overcome the perceived obstacles that get in the way of us meeting new people, creating and maintaining meaningful conversations, working the room, and nurturing good business relationships, not only at networking events but in our working lives.

If there’s one message to focus on more than any other in networking it might be this: Know what you stand for ,then focus on other people. Rather than looking for how people can help you in your career, look for what you can offer others. It’s a great way to build solid and lasting business relationships.
