First of all, thank you to both you and Virginia for organising the networking training event tonight - It was really excellent, and very worthwhile. It is funny, I have been to a lot of networking events, but never a networking event on Networking itself. I wish I had gone to this training session before I started going to networking events as I'm sure, with some of the hints and tips Virginia gave us tonight, I would have made my networking much more effective!
I am grateful for Virginia's pearl of wisdom about there being 'a reason why we were born with TWO ears and ONE mouth' and the importance of listening when networking. My other favourite point from tonight was the advice to know what we want to get out of a networking event before we go. I for one have never really thought too much about this and have just turned up to networking events and talked (mostly about myself I'm sure!) and never really gave much thought to what I wanted to achieve at the event.
Again, thank you, Virginia and TFPL for a great event - I'm off to update my LinkedIn account and to design my personalised business card for future networking events!
