The Gilbert Young Professionals Committee invites you to their Fall Workshop :
Connect with Confidence: Authentic Networking for Young Professionals
Connect with Confidence: Authentic Networking for Young Professionals
Networking shouldn’t feel forced, uncomfortable, or transactional. Join business advisor, entrepreneur, and community leader Colleen Biggs for an engaging workshop designed to help young professionals build meaningful connections while showing up as their authentic selves. Participants will learn how to confidently enter a room where they know no one, begin and end conversations naturally, recognize important social cues, navigate interruptions, and follow up in ways that create lasting professional relationships. With practical scripts, interactive exercises, and real-world guidance, you’ll leave prepared to network with greater confidence, curiosity, and purpose.
