So, when the word 'networking' is mentioned what images and emotions does that conjure up for you? Terror, excitement, fear, fun, extra work, OMG!! Maybe all of these. The most frequently asked questions Heather hears are "How do I work the room?" quickly followed by "So how do you break into a group?" She'll provide some simple, but effective tips to meet new people here today.

Heather White (@HeathersNet) is an international speaker, coach and author specializing in the subject of career and business networking. Called a Networking Architect, Heather can help anyone achieve their goals through authentic but strategic relationships. For about 90% of us, networking is not natural but most would agree it is essential. So Heather helps people and team by using practical and fun approaches, assessing how to 'read' situations, applying strategies aligned to outcomes all wrapped up in 'what works for you?. Her clients include professors to graduates, from sales people to scientist and senior management. We all need to build relationships -- Heather supplies the know-how.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
