Our #ProTips for Networking Online:
- Follow up when you meet someone online: send a thank you note & set an appointment
- Schedule social meetings online: coffee, lunch, or wine?
- Events around an issue, topic, or book
- Listen and ask questions -- learn about other people's stories and experiences
- Icebreakers for those break out rooms -- get to know one another first!
- Include prompts and/or questions for coffee chats/shuffles/meetups online
- Review the participants who might be attending a virtual conference -- schedule time to meet & chat with them
- Find a new space and place to dedicate the time for virtual conferences - be present without the daily distractions, e.g. email, mobile, etc.
- Reconnecting with current networks, peers, and friends
