Hopkinton Networking Group - Fri, Feb 17

Good Morning Acton Networkers!

The agenda for this Friday's Hopkinton Networkers Group (HNG) meeting will be facilitated by Vincent Rocheleau. The speaker will be Carl Harvey; he is the founder of Success & Self-Esteem. Carl is an accomplished and dynamic seminar leader and an award winning sales with more than 20 years of selling success to his credit.

Speaker Title: “What’s Stopping You? How to Risk and Succeed in the Job Search during a Down Economy”

Please arrive early so you can network. The meeting starts promptly at 10am with the following agenda: Welcome, Landings, Announcements, New Member Introductions, and Needs & Leads; followed by our speaker.

General Information:

The networking group meets in Hopkinton, at St. John the Evangelist Church parish hall. The meeting occurs, from 10 to 12 noon, and will meet the first and third Friday of the month. The parish hall has a capacity for 250 people and there are plenty of parking spaces in the parking lot and on the street. Around the perimeter of the parish hall are rooms to allow us to have focused network groups or for any other purpose we need. We chose the first and third Friday to allow everyone to attend the Acton Networking Group or any other networking group, if they wanted, on the Friday we do not meet.

We will maintain our close affiliation with Acton Networkers by using the same list-server to share information between the groups. Any e-mails specific to the Hopkinton Networking Group (HNG) will be indicated in the subject line either by "Hopkinton Networking Group" or "HNG"; this way anyone attending these meetings will know the e-mail is intended for them.

We will follow the following Agenda items:

· Welcome
· Landings (with doughnuts)
· Announcements
· New member introductions
· Needs and leads
· Speaker(s), Workshop, or Focus Group
· Cleanup

For those new members who give their introductions, this is what we would like to know:

· Name
· Skills and Value Statement
· Where have you been?
· Where are you going?
· Your title
· Your target companies
· Geography of search
· Name and e-mail address

If anyone wants to join our team, please let one of us know; we could always use the extra help and input for ideas.
