Did you know that everyone has Circles of Influence that help them negotiate and influence strategy and be more effective as leaders?
Would you like to learn what a Circle of Influence is, and how to expand yours?
Then this might be the right session for you!

Networking mavens Elizabeth Nicholas and Chantal Fraser are back with another interactive online networking event!
Join the Quinte & District HRPA Chapter for a friendly yet feisty event using small groups (6 people) split into teams. Get to know 5 of your peers as you share best practices, stories and experiences.
Networking’s not really your thing? Think of this as an opportunity to get to know a few people in a small group, while flexing your trouble shooting muscles (brain).

A handout capturing the ideas you share about expanding Circles of Influence, will be created and forwarded to you about a week after the event. Elizabeth and Chantal will also include a few strategies and tips of their own in the handout.
Looking forward to networking and connecting with you this Fall!

5:55 PM – Zoom room opens to allow participants to enter, facilitator encourages people to introduce themselves in the Chat and to start networking.
