Networking Your Way To Career Advancement

When you read some of the social media superstars (Chris Brogan, Connie Reece, just to name a few), many of them talk about the importance of giving back. Well…
This evening I will be participating at my alma mater (C.W. Post/Long Island University) as they host a “Networking Your Way To Career Advancement.” This is being put together by the Professional Experience and Career Planning (PEP) Office. All students are invited to attend, and are required to wear business attire. Students will not be bringing their resumes, but rather engaging in conversation to fully practice their business communication skills.
Fellow entrepreneurs and employers will be on hand to give constructive criticism and tips to these students who will soon be entering this challenging workplace.

If your school or any organization reaches out to you for this kind of mentorship…please consider the kids and the environment we are in. Give them some help and some hope.

Thanks for the mention, Bryan. Hope your LIU event was a great success. I love speaking at university events and for classes. My first reaction is always that I’m too busy, yet I somehow find time to squeeze in as many of these as possible. It energizes me to think I could have an influence on their lives and careers. Kudos to you for sharing your expertise with those who stand to benefit the most!

Connie,
Thank you for all of the good work you do as it pertains to social media. The event was great. I am looking forward to connecting many of the graduating students with colleagues who may be able to help them out in the near future.
