Networking

Networking across the borders

In your own native language you love networking. Great. But in an international context you let many an opportunity go by because you can't talk to people properly or can't address them correctly. Sound familiar? Together with your network coach you will rid yourself of those language barriers in the Networking workshop.

Target group:

Everybody who wants to see less opportunities go by and get more out of professional relationships during events, congresses or even at the coffee machine. 

Required starting level:

B1(00): intermediary

Aim:

Do you often hold back from starting a conversation with someone you don't know from Adam, and certainly if this person doesn't speak the same language as you? This workshop focuses on the conversational skills which will help you to develop an extensive network of interesting contacts in no time.

Programme

Length:

6 hrs.

Contents:

During this training the following issues will be dealt with:

  • encourage speaking
  • enlarge one's ability to cope in the foreign language
  • introduce yourself
  • practice elevator pitch, elevator story 
  • ask questions
  • active listening
  • tell anecdotes

Approach:

This training is a workshop. In these training sessions we opt for limiting the theory part and actually getting to work in practical situations as much as possible. We simulate typical network situations in practical exercises. These are evaluated and, if need be, adjusted. In order to guarantee the interactivity of this training, the maximum number of participants is limited to 6.
