IGGY PINTADO
CEO and Chief Networking Officer of ConnectGen
> The online networking opportunity
The old adage of "not what you know but who you know" has made a big comeback. Recent employment uncertainty due to the financial crisis has made business people re-visit the importance of having a network to call upon for assistance if required.
The mass adoption of online networking tools such as Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter has facilitated the ability to build and manage professional networks online. There now exists an opportunity for business people to create and nurture personal and commercial opportunities from these networks.
In this session, Iggy Pintado, CEO & Chief Networking Officer at ConnectGen and author of Connection Generation, discusses how online networking can be smartly leveraged to create potential social and business opportunities.
Delivered in a practical and interactive style, this presentation is guaranteed to provide insights and ideas on how to be best positioned in an increasingly connected business world by taking advantage of the Online Networking Opportunity.
