Create Your Way Forward
You’ll gain insight on the how’s and why’s of professional and social skills —
- Professionally introducing yourself.
- Confidently and comfortably shaking hands and making eye contact.
- Effectively networking — with food and drink in hand.
- Taking the initiative when you’d rather hang back.
- Pitching and promoting who you are.
- Being you, being seen, and making a positive impression.
- Successfully following up.
You’ll meet mentors and new friends who will guide you through a brunch-time learning experience on how to communicate, for example, with college recruiters, scholarship committee members, prospective employers, interviewers, instructors, and so on. You’ll come away prepared to walk into unknown situations with more confidence because you’ll know what to do and will be more authentically you in doing it. You’ll be equipped with professional and social skills to further your life.
Memorable Moments Alert
- Use your own savvy business cards — we’ll create them for you — to make a good impression on those who’ve been where you are and have success secrets to share.
- Practice how to calm nervousness and anxiety — we’ll show you some great techniques. And we’ll help you understand what’s happening in the brain when you practice being calm so you can be more in control in any given situation.
