[PAST EVENT] Alumni Webinar: Designing Strategic Networks and Networking Strategically

April 24, 2014
12pm
Location
TBA
Do you ever wonder why some people seem to get ahead faster than others? It may be that they truly understand who you know is as important as what you know, and that intentionally managing a strategic network is imperative to a successful career. Join Inga Carboni, Ph.D., for an interactive session on designing strategic networks and networking strategically.

Some major takeaways from this webinar will include:

-Networking is consciously managing your social relationships
-Networking is the single most powerful activity you can undertake in terms of developing your social capital
-Strategic networkers engage in activities that put them in contact with dissimilar and unconnected people
-Strategic networks focus on what they give to others, not on what they can get from others
