Speaker: Rustica
Lamb
Networking to success and wealth creation
|
A
great database does not a wealth network make.
How
many networking articles have you read? The ones that
tell you how to enter a group, leave a group and hand
out your business card. The ones that give you
techniques for being more comfortable.
What if I told you, if you didn’t like it, you didn’t have
to network? What if I told you I know a shy person, who can meet no one
in a week and still add 30-40 people to his network each week? Would
you want to know how?
Hear Rustica’s journey in 2007 that saw her find her flow and build
an international network of entrepreneurs, this story was rated ‘inspirational’ by
many people at a recent international conference in Bali.
How to network without networking, if it’s not your thing, you
don’t have to, but still be able to build your network.

Winn - The simple art of being simply outstanding
THE SIMPLE ART OF BEING SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!

You are the face of the company – what is it!
·
Outer Image – inner confidence!
·
Camouflaging the challenges and accenting the attributes.
·
Applying the polish!
Katrina
has 30 years experience in Sales, Marketing and General Management across
a range or service and product

of years training full time throughout New Zealand in the

She believes that companies need to understand their
image and branding and relay those values and perceptions
to their staff…who are in fact the Face of the
company! Aligning individual image with company image
ensures consistent performance and customer service.
There are five things that determine whether one company
is chosen over another in any competitive market. At
the top of the list is the service and representation
of staff. Attitude under girds every facet of success
within an organization.
