GROW YOUR NETWORK WITH ADVICE FROM A FORTUNE 500 STRATEGIC ADVISOR

One of the most frequently requested program topics—NETWORKING—is front and center at this month’s DLE Culture Chat, an interactive, informative program that examines workplace and career trends.

“Why Your Networking is Not Working” is the topic of the Feb. 19 program, starting at 12:00 PM ET and featuring DLE Community Member and Management Consultant Mike Smith, who has worked with Fortune 500 firms on innovation and operations.

Mike will begin the program by sharing guidelines that have opened doors to professional and personal opportunities. “People despise networking because WORK is right in the title. Networking is all about maintaining your relationships in a way that is mutually beneficial. During this session, we will overview best practices and pitfalls of a strong networking strategy,” he reveals.

Attend and you will gain:

• An easy and potentially automated system for networking
• Insight into the mistakes made in networking so they can be avoided
• Tools and best practices for networking.
