Meeting
Janet Parnes, a Social Conversation and Etiquette Expert, spoke to us about "How to Unleash the Power of Communications to Bring in Clients and Build Your Network". (See photograph below.) She offered tips, like using pauses to regain the attention of distracted listeners, small talk to put both parties at ease, keeping the distraction from your phone out of sight, and turning your torso to directly face the person you're attempting to engage in conversation. Janet conducts programs like today's for professionals and college students. For more information, visit: www.EtiquetteForToday.com.
