Non-CLE Workshop:Why Should I Keep Talking to You? Forming Foundations for Trusted Relationships

10:45 am – 12:00 pm

Meeting someone for the first time can be awkward. Especially when there is an opportunity to start a new professional relationship. The words, “So, what do you do?” should be a welcome opportunity for us to introduce ourselves and describe how we might help others. But, we often stumble, talk too much or don’t give enough information to really start a relationship. A canned, scripted “elevator pitch” may even trip us up more as we try to spit out our memorized lines.

Join us in this session as law firm business development consultant, Craig Brown takes us beyond canned elevator pitches and gets us to memorable conversations that will lead to satisfying professional relationships. This session will help you create a framework for applying first introductions to a variety of settings and then use your new relationships to begin building new business.
