The Power of Connection: Building Relationships That Move Your Career
Your career is shaped by what you accomplish—but it’s also influenced by the people you meet along the way. Meaningful professional relationships can open doors, create opportunities, expand your perspective and help you navigate the next stages of your career.
Lori will share how intentionally building relationships—and continuing to invest in them over time—can become one of the most valuable professional-development tools in your career. You’ll leave with practical ideas for strengthening your network, becoming a more active contributor to your professional community and, most importantly, one meaningful next step with someone you just met.
After the program, enjoy a tour of NBS’s workplace and see how intentionally designed environments can help bring people together – creating another connection between place, people and community.
