Introduction

Networking is becoming increasingly important in securing business opportunities. Successful business relationships rely more than ever on personal contact. Image, courtesy, politeness, and etiquettes are necessary in all our business and personal relationships.

The way you conduct yourself in business events, enables you to establish a strong personal brand, which again, allows you to promote yourself professionally. Through a step-by-step approach, this program allows participants to create their own business networking strategy, that will help them generate new sales leads and deepen connections with their existing contacts.
