NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES AT #NAMA26

STRATEGIC SOCIAL BUILDING BUSINESS CONNECTIONS THAT LAST
Wednesday, April 15, 3–4 p.m.
​Start the convention by transforming the way you think about networking. This interactive session replaces the traditional reception with purposeful, skill-building experiences designed to help you form genuine, goal-driven connections.

Through a mix of expert insights, networking games, and collaborative challenges, you’ll learn how to shift from quantity to quality conversations, set intentional networking goals, and make follow-up connections that stick. Whether you’re an emerging leader or a seasoned professional, you’ll leave energized, connected, and ready to build relationships that matter throughout the conference — and beyond.

Key Takeaways:

• Focus on quality, not quantity, in every conversation
• Set strategic networking goals before events
• Use practical techniques for meaningful follow-up and relationship building

This event is a friendly and fun way to start your conference experience — and gain some helpful tools for approaching networking events strategically. Explore new ways to make a lasting impression and leave with a framework you can use at future events.
