Turbo-charge the power of your IMCNE network. Through a facilitated program of networking led by Diane Darling, you’ll be able to tap into the IMCNE network and learn the tricks of the networking trade.

During this session, we’ll be Networking With a Purpose... At this program you will:

Build more contacts —Through a systematic collaborative approach to networking, you’ll begin to develop close relationships with other IMCNE members—not just a collection of business cards and vague acquaintances.
Identify future partnering opportunities — Meet consultants that work in various industries who can refer or connect you to more clients. Learn the practice area specifics of other experts so that everyone can benefit from future connections, referrals, and partnering opportunities.
Hear about common mistakes in networking - and tips on how to avoid them.
Leave with a Contact/Resource tool — All attendees will receive a book with detailed profiles and photos of every attendee.

This program will help you take better advantage of the tools that IMCNE has put into place to help our members get to know each other: IMCNE LinkedIn Group, an IMCNE Google Group for discussions and our on-line consultant search service. Better leverage the power of these tools by helping others put a face to your name, and really understand your business.

This program will give you a whole new level of value from your membership in the powerful IMCNE network. If other members don’t know you and what you do, you won’t get known—so how will you get business?

Our facilitator is Diane Darling – Author, Co-founder and CEO of Effective Networking. As principal consultant for Effective Networking, Inc., she founded the company on the premise that everyone can learn to network, they just need to find their own style.

Combining interactive training, strategic planning and an exploration of the natural fears of networking, Darling demystifies the process by providing techniques that can be immediately implemented.

She has received rave reviews for her seminars and speeches and is increasingly sought after as an expert resource on the subject of networking.
