Men's Club Business Networking Group, January 21
The primary goal of the first session of our new Business Networking Group
(Sunday, January 21 at 9:30 am)
will be to break the ice, enable members to get to know each other and each other's businesses, and establish expectations for the group going forward.
We'll start with a series of short activities led by Mike Bonheim designed to help members identify their needs, and from those needs define their goals and objectives for the networking series.
We will then have a period of "structured engagement, "a strategically designed group activity that will facilitate directed networking and interaction."
Our second session will be led by John Prins (Sunday, February 11 at 9:30 am).
A family's values, passed down through the generations, afford family members the confidence to be able to say, "And that's what it means to be a Goldberg!" Or, a "Nicholson would never do that!" They make us who we are.
John's interactive presentation will demonstrate the how and why those values
are so key to developing an organization's
shared values. He will facilitate a discussion of a) what comes next, b) the return on the investment of time and energy, and (c)
how a values-based planning experience
paves the way to meaningful strategic planning and contributes to a rich, healthy and
productive company culture.
Our third and every session after will be formatted with your ideas.
As a community, we have always supported each other personally, here's our chance to do the same professionally!
The structure of this session will include 3 minute presentations from select congregants introducing their businesses, and identifying a need or challenge they would like to present to the group. Each presentation will be followed by brief discussions around the topics raised in the presentation, and ways anyone could help.
After the formal presentations and discussions, we will have time for an open networking meet and greet, where everyone will have the chance to see what knowledge or connections may exist in the congregation and how we can support each other professionally.
Join us to make connections with other members, profit from their experience, guidance, and knowledge, and perhaps forge partnerships - all with the ultimate goal of helping everyone grow their business. Please contact Mike Bonheim at mbonheim@barnburnermktg.com for more info or if you would like to present at this first gathering.
This Men's Club business networking group is open to both men and women. Coffee and ... will be served throughout these sessions.
