Milton Keynes, UKLearning NewsCreativedge Training

Creativedge Training, the 'bite-size' management and leadership training provider, has introduced a training course in personal networking techniques - an intensive 90-minute session to help business professionals to improve their networking skills.

"Successful networking at events is an important part of meeting new people and building those relationships that turn into repeat sales and referrals; it's a long-term business development strategy," says Creativedge's Mark Rose.

"Networking must create a lasting impression; it's less about meeting lots of new people and rather more about people remembering you after the event and is a skill that needs to be developed and worked on just like any other sales skill," added Rose.

Creativedge's 'Networking' bite-sized session is packed with tools and techniques that can be put to work straight away. The session covers areas such as; identifying where to network, approaching people, opening and developing conversations, ways to end conversations, maximising your elevator pitch and making a lasting impression. 'Networking' is one of Creativedge's 56 bite-sized training sessions for managers and business professionals.
