Step 6: Explain that we need to give people a context in which to relate to us,
instead of a job title or where we work. For example,
“Hi! I’m Charlotte Waisman. I help women get promotions.” When
people hear this tag line, they usually ask Charlotte for an explanation.
So she elaborates.
Here’s another example of what we mean: “Hi! I’m Lois Hart. I help
companies save thousands of dollars!” When she is asked, she elaborates
as well.
Ask participants to select and work with a new partner to create
interesting tag lines for one another.
When everyone is ready, ask people to move around and introduce
themselves using their new tag lines.
Step 7: Close the session by asking volunteers to briefly sum up the point of the
networking activity.POST-ACTIVITY REVIEW

the participants were, and what questions they raised. Then, make notes that include
how much time you actually spent on the activity.(^170) THE LEADERSHIP TRAINING ACTIVITY BOOK
