Babson College Adds Pre-program for April 23

High Quality Connections: A Foundation for Networks that Work

April 23, 2024 | Bentley University | 7:30 am - 8:20 am

Relationships are a key resource for our personal and professional growth, yet when people hear “networking” they roll their eyes. In this session, we will begin with the scientific basis for the shift toward positive organizational psychology over the past 20 years and demonstrate the power of a positive approach for rapidly building high quality connections.

You will participate in a fun exercise that illustrates how to build a positive foundation and discern why this evidence-based approach is effective. As we consider the critical factors for high quality connections, we will compare our experience in this exercise with a more typical networking session.
