The end of summer is closing in on us with September just around the corner. It is time to start thinking about getting back into regular routines. Time to step up the pace on networking again!

Everyone needs to network. If you are a business owner you need to network to get more clients. If you are looking for work, you should be out there checking out prospective employers. If you are an employer, networking is a great way to find employees (and very cost effective). If you are an employee, thinking about a change, you should get out and network to find out what is out there. If you are retired or a stay at home mom or dad, networking is a great way to meet people and possibly find new interests.

So, come on out and check out our Beyond Networking events. Although some topics, like "Working Wardrobe Modules" are more geared towards women, there are others like, "Maximizing Your Website" that will be helpful to both men and women.

Networking begins at 6:15, followed by the workshop at 7:00, followed by more networking. I would love to see you there!
