Webinar: The Introvert's Secret to Networking

SMPS St. Louis, along with Farnsworth Group, is hosting the webinar "The Introvert's Secret to Networking" (a $179 value) on July 21st. Seating is limited, and registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Coffee and refreshments provided.

Introverts are innately great networkers. The Introvert's Secret to Networking is a fresh perspective on networking for introverts and extroverts alike. Leave the sales pitch at home and learn to network by being yourself.

The Introvert's Secret to Networking will discuss the keys to real networking by looking at the stories of several introverts that have learned to succeed at networking and what extroverts can learn from their success. We will see how these individuals have succeeded by embracing their personal strengths, and eliminating the pressures of sales-driven networking. Come away with a fresh look at how you can use networking to succeed in your career and in life.

Learning Objectives:
-Redefine your understanding of networking and learn how anyone can succeed at networking.
-Learn to initiate and maintain ongoing contact with prospective clients to build a professional relationship and project opportunities.
