Keynote: ‘Making Networking Work’

And yet almost no business has a ‘Networking Strategy’ for growth, and most people dread the idea of actively networking.

Lee uses audience interaction to demonstrate key skills in two areas - face-to-face networking and learning how to grow a network strategically. Lee covers all those areas of personal networking that so
many people find difficult - meeting strangers, having interesting conversations, remembering names, and crucially - knowing when and how to move on! With an emphasis on being strategic, Lee shares how using online tools and clear structures to stay in touch will grow a thriving and powerful network.

Keynote: ‘Grown-Ups Don’t Use PowerPoint

The world is full of bad presentations and sales pitches, and they’re costing your business a fortune. Poor presentations waste people’s time, can slow down sales cycles and projects, add to endless pointless meetings and create confusion and procrastination. Worse, the presenter is often dull and flat and takes ages to get their point across (if they ever do!).
