Hmmm... I didn't know we have so many networking gurus here. Welcome
Deltra and Jacques.
I have quite a bit of business networking
experience. They include serving as Vice President
for the DC chapter of
the Nat'l Assoc. of Asian American Professionals
(NAAAP). I served as the Regional Events Coordinator for
Ryze Washington DC Business Networking Mixer– 1 of 25 Regional Business Networking Events for Ryze.
I also serving as a Networking Ambassador for the Professional Networkers Association.
I originally founded the The Networker's Network
forum on Ryze. We discuss and teach offline and some online business networking strategies for entrepreneurs and business people.
I currently run The
Entrepreneurs Playground Network on openBC. As the slogan says,
"Entrepreneurs Play Here." It's for the discussion of online
networking communities, the internet, technology, Web 2.0 & social software,
venture capital, real estate, sales & marketing issues.
I've been
mentioned and referenced in several business networking books. Some are
minor references, and some are major. This includes;
- Scott Allen's,
The Virtual Handshake.
- Leesa Barnes',
"Schmooze Your Way To
Success".
- And the biggest reference was having a chapter devoted to my thoughts on
business networking in Bonnie Lowe's, "Networkerholics" book.
I was certainly honored with that book as the book interviewed many of today's
top business networkers in the U.S, which included Ardel Fleeson, aka The
Schmooze Queen, Lynne Waymon, author of "Make Your Contacts Count" , Dan Williams of The Networking Community, Bob Burg, author "Endless
Referrals" and more.
I'm also about to launch a new networking group
here in the greater DC area called, Networkersville.
How bout you guys? :)
