Networking is not a new concept. Leadership is not a new concept. Leadership when networking is a new concept. It is simplistic, yet profound.
What is it that people do when networking that clearly identifies them as a leader? What is it that they need to know in order to be a leader when they network? Why is it important to understand this concept, especially in today's new business community?
Learn more about this topic at the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce's next First Friday Breakfast, which will be held Oct. 7 from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn Carlsbad Beach, 6450 Carlsbad Blvd.
The featured speaker will be Debbra Sweet, a musician, professional speaker and the author of "The Power of Leadership In Business Networking." Sweet will give tips that will help attendees hone their business networking skills to get results.
Sweet has been called a "people mover," who has the ability to move people to take action and get lasting results in their businesses and lives. Her insightful, interactive and powerful presentation based upon her book engages attendees to understand how their thinking and actions influence their results from networking. Audience members will discover three foundational cornerstones to being a leader when networking. These include:
• How to choose the right system to support your networking success.
• How your social footprint precedes you.
• The difference between an "Open 2" and a "Closed 3."
