We absolutely loved the ‘Soft Networking’ workshop! Here’s a sampling of the comments made by our participants:

“Carolyn’s ideas were vital; presentation was great!”

“The most useful thing I gained was the ‘reminder to be people oriented; take time from doing to listening.’”

“Hold a mirror up to others to let them see the beauty in themselves—What a great idea!”

“Thanks for the permission to really enjoy my co-workers, their company, and the many hours we spend together.”

“Friendship as the basis of Soft Networking—A lovely way to approach business!”

“I love the idea that Networking no longer means ‘What can I get from you?’ but “What can we do to help each other?’ This will be my new beacon!”
