Networking Chat
So now you are out there in a few business networks. Who will you talk to? What will you talk about? Your drink? Your spouse? Your favorite team?
Does that help you bond quickly, deeply or long term in your business network? What next then?
Well, an active listener knows that we have 2 ears and 1 tongue, so we should listen twice as much as we talk. I am guilty of violating this maxim more often than not. I should know better.
Are you networking among a limited group or are you actually expanding your network up and down the org chart and across cultures? That sounds a lot more promising to me.
Listening is one of the best kept secrets in life and business. If you know this secret you will find your networking expanding quickly, deeply and with long term ROI!
Good luck in your search for new jobs and new client!

Weekly Meeting - Tuesdays, 11 am Clarke Quay TCC 2nd floor The Central
Topic: Communicating with Singaporeans: Verbally and Non-Verbally
Summary:
To the first-time visitor, Singapore is a thoroughly Asian country with Western trappings. Not to mention, an English-speaking populace that may cause some discomfort and confusion. Apart from the sight of Asians speaking English with one another. One also has to contend with the varied Singaporean accents -- according to the individual's ethnicity.
Hence, the objective of this briefing on the finer points of communicating with Singaporeans, verbally and non-verbally. By the end of which, participants will be better enlightened on why Singaporeans are a proud bunch of Southeast Asians.
Presented by: Ange Teo
