Though hotel and restaurant employees are pros at engaging with guests, these skills don't necessarily translate to professional networking, where the stakes are higher and connections are long-term. Effective networking can open doors to career opportunities, mentorships, and collaborations that propel your professional growth, not to mention creating a support system of like-minded peers and trusted advisors. The breakout by James Frank and Corban Nichols at CHART 106 Chicago, "Master the Art of More Impactful Conversations," was full of excellent insights and strategies to help with getting the conversation started. Here are some additional ideas and tips from Patrick Yearout to help you utilize impactful conversations to maximize your professional networking efforts. https://lnkd.in/gs696fG6 #CHARTtrainers
