I am a member of the local young professionals group as well as their Toastmaster chapter. I attend the Toastmaster meetings twice a month which has an alternate purpose apart from networking which is to improve speaking/presentation abilities, but of course we are networking there as well. I step out for chamber events on occasion and attend the monthly mixers held by the young professionals group here. The Vegas Young Professionals also hold unique Big Wig Luncheons one time a month with local executives and Business 101 educations luncheons about various business topics - I try to attend those when I can. It's great to get an executive's perspective on the admin role so I try not to limit my networking to admin-only events. The business 101 events help me to better understand business from other points of view. I am an avid learner and networker and there is plenty of both going on if you are willing to put in the effort.

I would be curious to know what networks are you involved in? What functions do you get out and attend to expand your circle? Thank you so much for commenting as I continue to become more curious about how my fellow professionals expand their knowledge and skills. Can't wait to check our your website.

Each time I visit our monthly networking events I reconnect with people I have met before and sometimes we 'team up' to meet some new people. You never know where your relationships in life will take you or what kind of paths they can help to create - so my motto is to get out there and make some new connections.
