Your Course Author: Dave Delaney
Hi, I'm Dave Delaney. I'm the author of New Business Networking (Que Publishing) and founder of Networking For Nice People. I have spent thousands of hours speaking, organizing, attending, and sponsoring conferences and networking events.
I have learned that you must have a clear vision of what you wish to gain from attending a conference. Otherwise, you just go, see the speakers, and return back to your office without any benefit. I'm going to help you change this.
I made Better Conference Networking to help you network effectively to increase your return on the investment of attending conferences. I can't wait to show you everything I have learned, so you too can rock your next conference.
