Learn How to Communicate With Neuro-Linguistic Programming
What You Will Personally and Professionally Gain From This Program:
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) explores the relationship between how we think (Neuro), how we communicate (Linguistic) and our patterns of behavior and emotion (Programming). By studying and learning NLP, you will become more aware of your impact on others, how to manage and influence your own behavior for optimal results, how to improve and enhance your own interpersonal communication which will lead to building better relationships with others at work and at home. Whether you are looking to add NLP to your professional career in Business, Education, Therapy, Practices or want to master it for personal reasons, NLP can and will effectively transform the way you think, feel and behave by adopting new, and far more successful, models of human excellence.
* Recognize the importance of your attitude
* Become more aware of your impact on others
* Increase credibility through your words and behavior
* Think on your feet (and keep your foot out of your mouth)
* Build rapport and relate well with others
* Strengthen your relationships unconsciously and consciously
* Cultivate power and self-confidence, without being intimidating

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 is 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:

* 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.
