Shared Interest Groups (SIGs) are comprised of Chamber members with similar interests who meet to discuss trends, challenges, ideas and thoughts. SIGs give members the opportunity to learn, network and develop long-term, meaningful relationships in a casual setting that promotes conversation and camaraderie. SIGs will be formed without regard to geographical boundaries and will be guided by “conversation starters.”
This Sales/Business Development Shared Interest Group will discuss their biggest sales successes and failures. Participants will be able to learn from each other's experiences in a relaxed setting.
Conversation starter: Cindy Houston Hazen of Sales Executives.
Speaker: Patricia Leonard, author, career and business coach, speaker and trainer
Topic: Runway to success - the dance The now, how and wow are three critical areas significant to managing a successful business in a continuously shifting marketplace. Perhaps the most difficult part of managing change in today's business climate is that many variables affecting business operations are beyond our control. Therefore, our efforts must focus on factors that are within our control and planned in a very deliberate way. In other words, we must ensure the music we are playing is compatible with our sales dance. Our sales intent is a critical element of that dance. This session will focus on a business model designed to keep an organization on the runway to success.
Cost: Free to attend. No advance registration is required. To be added to this group's communication list, please contact Lauren Love-Bobel.
Dates: This SIG will meet monthly on the second Wednesday; all Chamber members are invited to join.
