New Professional Cohort: Being in the Room is the Point: Community Building and Networking

Overview

Most networking advice sounds good until you’re actually in the room. This session flips the script — before you walk into one of the largest professional gatherings of the year, you’ll have the tools, the language, and a game plan that makes the room feel manageable. We’ll cover what real professional relationship-building looks like, how to start and exit a conversation without it feeling transactional, and how to make the connections that actually stick. Then we put it to work — immediately — at the WSCPA Not for Profit Conference networking hour. No more winging it.
