How to Work a Room: 01. Preparing for an Event

Successfully attending a business event doesn't mean just showing up. In most cases, there's a reason why you're there and a goal that needs to be accomplished. Maybe you're attending a corporate function and need to make face time with potential clients. Or perhaps you're going to a networking event to meet relevant professionals in your industry. Maybe it's an educational seminar or community gathering. Whatever the case, these types of situations require interacting enthusiastically with other attendees. This comes naturally to some, and not at all to others. The aim of this program is to help you project a professional image for you and your organization, while getting the most value out of your event.
