We need 20 More People!
On February 21st, Boone Community School District (located in Boone, Iowa) and I will bring close to 400 high school students (juniors and seniors) together for a Professionalism Day!
Part of the time will be spent networking with community members… like you!
The goal is to create a structured opportunity for students to practice their networking skills with community members and gain valuable career insight and advice.
This is where you come in…
We would love community members (30-40 people per session) to come and network with students from 8:30 - 10:30 or 10:30 - 12:30 (or both) on February 21st.
The students will be paired with community members to network and after 7-10 minutes, they rotate around the room to meet additional community members. It’s pretty amazing how a lifelong connection can form so quickly! I have even heard of students landing internships and jobs after these networking days.
Community members are given conversation topics to cover (i.e. share your career journey or what do you do each day) and a few questions to ask the students (i.e. what do you plan to do after high school?). The goal is for the sessions to be fun and interactive! Thanks for helping shape the future!
If you are able to help at either (or both) sessions, let me know and I can send you the details! We are in need of 20 more to be ready for this event.
