The Circle: Building Relationships that Advance Your Career

Thursday, June 23, 2022 · 12 - 1 PM

Walking into an unfamiliar space and being surrounded by many unfamiliar people with the intent to “network” can feel awkward, even frightening.

This workshop aims to relieve some of the stress around networking. When you build genuine professional relationships, you become more aware of your skills and professional brand. Learn not only how to expand your professional circle, but how to build stronger relationships in general, no matter where you make them.
