This course was a very simplified understanding of how to organize and rationalize your networking contacts into a useable framework. It gives simple tools to prioritize the time you spend on networking.

Great course! The pre-planning advice is very helpful. Going into a meeting/event with a clear intent on your value and what your 'ask' is an excellent way to improve the effectiveness of the exercise.

Great course full of things that we should be to have or grow our individual networks. I learned of some new ways to do this that I had not previously thought about before.
