11931 W. Bluemound Road (North Suite)Wauwatosa, WI

They say that “what you think about you bring about”. If you focus on your future with purpose and intention…you will be unstoppable.  Certified Life Coach, Karin Conway will be leading this hands-on class. We will have magazines, glue sticks, poster-boards, etc. If you have any inspiring pictures, please bring them along. Its only $20 to participate in this 2 hour class (9:00-11:00am).

What do you envision you life looking like in your future? Are you dreaming about what you would like to see but it never seems to appear? Please join us to create the life of your dreams! If you don’t have a road map (vision board) to keep you on track, how will you stay focused on the result?
We are doing ours the old-fashioned way…by cutting and pasting pictures of what we want to see in our future, and placing them strategically into a collage on a board. We will have a lot of supplies, but it doesn’t hurt to bring along a few pictures of things that really move you. These could be family-related, career, financial, travel, spiritual, health and fitness, home, entertainment, love and relationships, etc. You decide what moves you. Maybe you will select a picture of a million dollars…maybe a picture of a happy family strolling on the beach?…maybe a perfectly aligned, lean body? There is no right or wrong way…just your way of seeing your future life. Create your own Vision Board to serve as a daily reminder of your aspirations and what you want your life to be.

The Press Club has also unveiled the Big League City MVP Contest that will lead up to the annual City of Milwaukee Birthday Party to be held January 31, 2012 at the Grain Exchange in the Mackie Building at 225 E. Michigan St. in Milwaukee from 5:30 – 8:00 p.m. Attendees will enjoy gourmet food, a cash bar, big league networking, a memento of the evening and more.

Each year, the annual City Birthday Party brings together the “best of the bigs” from Milwaukee – more than 500 movers, shakers and newsmakers from the southeastern Wisconsin region annually join Mayor Barrett, members of the Milwaukee Common Council, and the Milwaukee Press Club to start the new year on a positive note.  It’s annually called one of the top networking events in the city, and is considered a “must attend” among many local business and community leaders. This year, the event offers an opportunity for the community to vote for its MVPs in several different categories.

Those interested in attending or learning more about the Big League City of Milwaukee’s 166th Birthday Party can register immediately at www.milwaukeepressclub.org.

I hope you enjoy this opinion on networking  written by Karin Conway, Your Connections Coach, helping you connect to the people and resources you need to succeed.

What Is Networking?

If you asked my husband this question, the IT guy, he would probably give you some long answer about connectivity, systems, servers, data and on and on. But in my world it’s much simpler. My version of networking goes something like this…

Networking is the art of building your sphere of influence through deliberate attempts to connect to other humans and display a definite purpose of helping others. (Notice I didn’t say anything about sales, marketing and all the other things we might normally associate with networking.)

Networking in business is NOT all about perfecting your sales pitch and trying to get in front of as many people as possible to barf a sales pitch on them and hope that something sticks. In my years of experience in business networking, I have experienced far too many of these “regurgitators” who truly don’t know any better. It’s really too bad because most of them are genuinely nice people. It’s just that, for whatever reason, they didn’t learn (or weren’t taught) the true meaning of networking. But, whether the person is nice or not, if they barf on me once, I’m probably not going to give them a chance to do it again.

It is a skill, business networking. So it does take some professionals a little time to mature and figure out the ins and outs. This may be because there are many different networking groups, each with their own style and philosophy of how things should be done. Someone may first be exposed to a rigid group with a long list of rules, a group, for example, that insists on members having a perfectly rehearsed elevator pitch.

While it’s not a bad thing to have your pitch fine-tuned so you sound like you have a clue, I don’t feel your speech should sound rehearsed. I was a part of far too many of these groups in the past and the constant pitch rehearsal bored me.

That said, I like real people. My opinion of people has little to do with how well they rehearsed their elevator speech. When you meet someone for the first time, instead of being very rigid, holding back everything for fear of rejection and hiding behind an elevator speech, why not try opening up and be honest to see what happens?

I think you will find that most people see this as a breath of fresh air and will open up to you and let you into their inner circle that much faster. When you share something personal, you also open up the possibility of finding commonalities with your new business associate.

Who knows, you might even make a new friend. I like to just be me and see how people react. Some are way too tightly wound to handle this. They memorize and rehearse their pitch and that’s all they know. If I schedule a get-to-know-you meeting and the person immediately pulls out all their sales slicks to put on a show for me…the show is over. Sorry! It’s people first, then you can work on the sales and marketing—later, after we get to know each other.

Networking is fun

I get so excited when one of my friends comes to me and says, “Karin, I know you know everybody—who do you know who can help me with….?” It is such a great feeling to be the “connector.” I get to do this a lot simply because I have made it a habit to meet a lot of new people all the time and get to know them personally. If I have a good feeling about you as a person, I probably would trust you to be a service provider for myself or for someone I care about. Since I have a large network of trusted professionals, it’s that much more likely that I can refer business back and forth.

My advice to you

Get to know as many people as you can to hone your networking skills to make connections. This will put you in a different realm. “I see you everywhere” is a line I hear frequently. Since I have so many connections and frequently organize events to bring people together, I’m very active on LinkedIn and other social media sites. Even though I may not have seen someone for the better part of a year, they still see my smiling face online and it keeps me “top of mind.” When they do have a need, I’m the one they think of to ask for help.

If you make a positive habit of getting to know many people, this will happen to you.

Networking…

Involves building your sphere of influence

Is the opportunity to connect with other humans

Involves helping others succeed

Includes sharing something personal to be “real”

Includes finding people you can trust to add to your inner circle

Is all about people

Is great fun because you get to meet new people and learn from them

Networking Is Not…

Regurgitating facts

A sales call

A chance to pitch

A marketing free-for-all

A perfectly rehearsed system

Have More FUN + Take Your Company to the Next Level with Boaz

Thursday 12/8/2011 11:45am-2:30pm.

Held at Herzing University (555 South Executive Drive, Brookfield, WI) Register on MeetUp; http://www.meetup.com/Milwaukee-Business-Professionals/events/41435342/

Please welcome internationally known speaker, Boaz. He’s really that good; he only needs one name! Come have Lunch n’ Learn with us!
I have personally experienced Boaz live and in person a year ago. He is an amazing, energetic, charismatic speaker who will get you fired up to make some personal changes to fire up your life! If you have difficulty speaking to or connecting with others, this is the place for you. Or, if you just want to be the best you can be and work on your self-growth to be able to build your business, be at Herzing University on December 8th.
Please check in at 11:45am. Lunch will be served promptly from noon-12:30pm. The presentation will begin at 12:30 and all food cleared out of the way so we can get to work. Please arrive promptly at or before noon, so you don’t miss lunch. We will be serving hot Italian entrees, pasta and sauce, salad, bread, coffee & bottled water.
We have a strict limit of 30 seats for this exclusive engagement. Corporations pay thousands of dollars to have Boaz train and inspire their employees. We have the distinct pleasure to enjoy an inspirational message from Boaz and a delicious lunch for only $20. Register early because this will fill up and I hate to see people miss out because of procrastination. http://www.meetup.com/Milwaukee-Business-Professionals/events/41435342/

Here is a small sample of some of his work;
The Tiberias Success Formula
By Boaz Rauchwerger

Step 1: Affirmations. These are statements of goals you desire, written as if they were already accomplished, with an emotion added. If the goal is time-sensitive, set a date. Read your affirmations the first thing each morning and the last thing each night. Set goals that are achievable, reach them and then raise them. Do not analyze the “how.” Just clarify an exciting “why.”

Step 2: The 31-Day Charge. Listen for 2 or 3 minutes to a positive CD, while you get ready in the morning. The first 15 minutes of the day will set your mood for the entire day.

Step 3: Readings. It’s much more productive to familiarize yourself with a few basic human relations techniques, and make them a part of you, than to read many books and not internalize any of them. I recommend “How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie and “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill. Read just one page each day in each book. When completed, read the books again.

Step 4: Exercise & Eat Right. Take a few minutes, two or three times a week, to get some exercise. Great mental energy is created when you’re in good physical shape. Balanced and controlled eating will help you live longer and healthier.

Step 5: The Fortune Fund. Carry a $100 bill at all times. It will make you feel prosperous. Save some money every day. Get an envelope and put a dollar bill or more in it every day. Stop charging impulsively and place $20 bills around the house.

Step 6: Action. Take some kind of action every day on your most important goal. Small steps, over time, turn into giant leaps.

Your Daily Focus: Colored Animals

10.26.2011

Colored Animals

Here’s a really fun way to gain insight into yourself and others. I would like you to play along with me and simply answer the following questions. So please grab a pen and paper and write down your answer to the following four questions:

What is your favorite color? Not for your clothing or for your car, or the walls of your living room, but simply your favorite. Let your answer be the color whose essence you like the most.

Now, choose three or four adjectives that describe that color. What is it about that color that you like. What does that color represent specifically to you?

What is your favorite animal? Not for a pet, but simply the one animal in all the animal kingdom that you admire most.

Now, again, choose three or four adjectives that describe that animal. What is it about your animal specifically that you like and admire. What is it that makes that animal special to you?

Okay, save your list. Tomorrow I will describe how to interpret your answers. You will gain insight to yourself.

If you can, share this quiz with others you know well or work with. It will provide great insights to better understanding them, and getting along better.

Have fun with it, and I will see you tomorrow with the amazing next step.

Your Daily Focus: Yellow Penguin  10.27.2011

Sometimes the deepest insights into ourselves and others can come from the simplest places. We need simply to pay attention.

If you have not answered the four questions from yesterday’s Daily Focus, please go back and do it before you read this post. Yesterday’s Focus is called “Colored Animals” and can be found at http://www.rickschaefermd.com/blog/general/daily-focus-colored-animals/

Here is the interpretation of your four answers from yesterday. You should have your answers to the four questions on paper in front of you. Here we go:

The color represents how you see yourself. What is your essence, as you see it from your personal view point? It actually does not matter what color you have chosen, it is simply the descriptive words that you chose that reveal the truth of your self-image.

If you chose blue, it might represent warm and comfortable to you, or strong and powerful, or easy and “goes with everything,” or vibrant and stimulating, or independent and self-sufficient. It is the description that provides the insight to your self-image.

The animal represents how you desire others to see you. These are the characteristics that you want others to see in you, and admire in you. It is not the animal, but the descriptive terms you chose to go with the animal. You might choose a cheetah because they are strong and fierce, or sleek and athletic, or graceful and delicate, or nurturing and playful.

Again, many of us pick the same animal, like a dog or cat or dolphin or deer, but our descriptive terms will always be the revealing factor. Understanding how another person sees themself and desires to be seen by others can be extraordinarily helpful in our dealing with them.

Treating others in the way they desire to be treated is far more helpful than treating them the way you would want to be treated. Think about that for a bit, it is extremely insightful.

Please share your findings with me and all the other readers by posting a comment below. We would all love to hear not only what your answers were, but what insight you may have learned about yourself and someone else.

Oh, by the way, I am a Yellow Penguin!

Enjoy,

Rick

For the quality of product that Kevin delivers this seminar should sell for $200/pp.  He is offering this one time only at a rate of $20 per person. We would do it for free to give you a taste…but then all the slackers with no skin in the game would show up. We only want motivated professionals who are willing to commit to make changes in their business. I hope that’s you.
