    ?? ?? Day 50: The End Is Just the Beginning – Personal Branding & Career Growth ???? Here we are—Day 50 of Pay It Forward: 50 L&D Voices to Inspire! ?? But is it really the end?

Personal branding isn’t just about self-promotion—it’s about shaping your career with purpose. ?? Are you making decisions that align with your #values, strengths, and goals? ?? Are you building genuine #connections and making an impact? ?? Are you taking control of your #career trajectory instead of waiting for opportunities?

  • Effective #Networking: What’s Love Got to Do With it? Tina Turner asked a great question, one to think about when choosing a new networking group or eliminating one from your current dance card. Before joining a group, consider why you want to join. Is the purpose for business development? Professional development? Social? Review the organizations you’re already involved in. Are you involved with a group because it’s fun or because its members generate business for you? Maybe a little of both. You’ve only got so much time. Review your networking plan often. What’s working? What’s not? Read on for more advice on choosing associations, groups, and measuring effectiveness: ?? https://lnkd.in/ga4NUEnp #Training25 #ATD #NetworkingAdvice

  • DURING THE CONFERENCE PRO TIP: Make Connections that Count At the event, the number of people, sessions, and activities can be overwhelming for many, whether you’re an experienced pro or a conference newbie. These tips below will help you network effectively during the event. Ask Open-ended Questions. “Is this your first conference?” is not an open-ended question because the person you ask will either say “yes” or “no.” Instead, ask: “What was your favorite session thus far and why?” or “Whose session are you hoping to see most?” or “What’s one concept you learned and are bringing back to your employer?” Asking open-ended questions will encourage conversation and learning from other attendees beyond the sessions. At one conference, an attendee shared a great synopsis of a session he loved, including voice demonstrations. This recap was fun, and I got key takeaways about a missed session. You can quickly turn casual connections into new friendships by asking open-ended questions and showing genuine interest in others. What's one of your best conference-going tips?

  • Whether you're at a networking event or a conference... Connect with a Business Card or via LinkedIn. When you ask open-ended questions, you’ll uncover at least one unusual or interesting story you learned about each person you meet. Jot it down on the back of his or her business card or in your smartphone's notes app, along with the date and session you met. No card? Connect on LinkedIn. You can use LinkedIn's QR code feature in the app to make it easy to scan and connect. This strategy will help you follow up with your new contacts after the show. Reviewing your memory jogger notes will refresh your new connection’s memory of how you met. This ensures they'll more likely connect with you and make a great follow-up after the event.

    7 Steps to a New Job Nick's Rock Star Networking Story: "I found your book very helpful?when trying to find a job that would make me happy and allow me to do something I was into. I went to LinkedIn and read my friend's profile. In her description, she said she loved her job. From there,?I was very proactive.?Instead of messaging, I just picked up the phone and asked her to tell me exactly what she did for a living. It was a crazy journey getting this job. I just?used “networking” as the sole reason I got it. I kept in touch with an old friend that I was close with but didn’t see often. That ended up being enough, and it proved that you should never burn a bridge. They also liked that I was NOT asking for a job but?asking to learn about what they do. From there, I acted the part, whether dressing for the part when they picked me up from the airport or being very proactive throughout this process. It’s crazy, like you said in your book, how many jobs come from networking?compared to online postings. I want to thank you because your book gave me confidence and not be afraid to pursue something I believed in for a career!” Nick's action steps: 1. Reviewed his LinkedIn connections?and read the profiles to identify people with interesting jobs he’d like to learn more about. (Research) 2. Picked up the phone!?And reconnected personally. (Reach out) 3. Asked about his friend’s career?to learn more about it. He did NOT ask for a job. 4. Shared common interests.?This led to the additional connection with a local sales rep. 5. Took action?– went on the ride-along and, as he said, “dressed the part.” He acted as if he already had the gig. 6. Never burn a bridge.?Nick maintained relationships. 7. Was a go-getter.?Nick took action, which got him results: a NEW JOB. Which of Nick’s steps will you take right now? You're already on LinkedIn, so go for it. Share your story! Let’s roll!
