This two-hour discussion looks at
networking -- a time-honored business
development technique that's getting a
makeover, thanks to on-line networking
sites like LinkedIn. While tech savvy
professionals are comfortable making
connections on-line, they are often unsure
how to use these new contacts to build
their personal networks. On the other
hand, some people prefer more traditional
in-person networking opportunities and are
doubtful how to utilize on-line
connections. This session takes a look at
how to make the most of both. Participants
will leave knowing how to get started with
each form of networking.
