Description
Does the word networking make you cringe? Fall asleep? Hide under the bed? In this webinar, Linda and Brittany explore what’s at the heart of networking and how to network in a way that is both natural and effective. You’ll leave this webinar with an action plan for today and for each quarter going forward, one that can be revisited and redeployed as you grow your professional network.
