Business Networking Course

This one day Business Networking Course aims to demystify the “art of networking” – after all, networking is just another way of interacting with people – but somehow once you attach an agenda to it, it becomes awkward and difficult.

You’ll learn how to put yourself and others at ease, how to easily join and leave groups and how you can use your individual style to communicate with people.

We won’t make you “schmooze” and we won’t make you predatory, but we will give you a variety of tools and techniques to help get the best out of yourself and others at any type of gathering.
