Network: To interact or engage in informal communication with others for mutual assistance or support.

Why network? Most business (and jobs) is generated through networking. Networking is the art of building relationships not closing a sale. And no business can flourish without the connectors - the rainmakers  - who build and maintain the most important relationships. The simple concept is that people do business with those they know, like and trust.

Great networking skills can be learned by anyone! Join us and share your own tips and lessons learned from your experiences.  Take away some creative ideas and get inspired to do some positive networking – all the more critical now in these tough economic times!

Successful networking professionals Craig Childs of Chase & Lunt and Patty St. John will lead this group discussion on how to effectively network.
