Back to Business: “The Network Effect” ...

Connecting Better In Your Professional Life

The secret to business success is cultivating relationships with other people.

Anyone you meet could become a customer, supplier, referrer, advisor or a future partner. Whether you're an employee, executive or entrepreneur, having genuine connections with those in your personal network can be your best asset – throughout your career.

In this power-packed hour, Rick Spence and Barbara Katz will take the first 15 minutes to share their 7 best tips for becoming a powerful and confident Relationship Builder.

Then they’ll take all your questions about meeting new people, overcoming shyness, building trust, thriving at networking events and how to leverage your network.

How often have you asked yourself, “Who do I know who can help me?" Once you become an effective Relationship Builder, your network will be the first place you turn for advice, ideas, solutions and referrals.

You’ll never work alone again!

All registered participants will be emailed event login information the week of Aug 28.

Event Bonus: All participants will receive a copy of Barbara and Rick’s article, “How to Command a Room.” It’s packed with advanced networking skills that will enhance your career forever!
