COVID-19 has interrupted our home and working lives, but that doesn’t mean we can’t keep doing what we do best – communicate!  So, IABC Victoria wants to invite you to ‘Grab a wine and get online.’

We can’t think of a better way to meet with our industry colleagues than over a drink and a snack, online at this incredibly challenging time.

As always, our mingles are designed for our members to come together in a casual setting for a drink, and a chance to network, share ideas and catch up on the latest news in the world of communications. We’ll just be doing it online for the time being.

Get the most out of your IABC membership and dial in.

Just because we’re stuck at home doesn’t mean we have to stop learning. So we’ve teamed up with our friends at IABC NSW to help you unlock the secrets to networking success, help you build your networking confidence and learn how to transform your network, business and career.

We’re thrilled to announce Janine Garner, bestselling author, global authority on networking, collaboration and leadership will be hosting a virtual workshop for us to help you take a strategic approach to networking and drive success for your business and career.

There is no doubt that your network and ability to network with confidence is more critical than ever. Networking the right way:

– Unlocks opportunity for your career and business success
– Opens doors to opportunity
– Creates a sounding board and intelligence bank for ideas, supporting the development of your own skills
and capability.

There is so much more to networking that collecting likes, friends, connections or old school business cards. To really succeed you need to become the master of your networking both at work and in life generally.

In this virtual workshop you will learn how to:

– Build a network that works for you versus against you.
– Build a hyper-profitable network to generate more leads, sales and growth
– Build your powerful positioning to be remembered
– Learn the skills to network like a pro
– Learn how to surround yourself with the right people who will help you achieve your goals
– Future-proof your career and business ventures with a network that evolves with you and is a non-stop
source of opportunity and support.

Session 1:

– Understand why a strategic approach to networking is critical for both business and career growth and key future proofing strategy
– Gain clarity on the type of network you need to help you right now
– Identify the key ‘must have’ people you need in your network and identify those you need to remove from your network

Session 2:

– Networking with ease – learn the top three tips
– Be remembered – learn a nine-step framework to position you and what you do with impact

When: Wednesday 29 April 2020
Time: 9:00am to 11:30am
