About this Event
Elevate your networking game with our interactive workshop, led by Tim Flood, a seasoned expert and professor of communication at the Kenan-Flagler Business School, as well as the Managing Director of Launch Chapel Hill. Hosted by the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, TIBBS, and Innovate Carolina, this session is designed to help you master the art of effective communication, whether you're in academia, the professional world, or bridging both.
Tim will guide you through the essentials of introducing yourself confidently and making strong first impressions that pave the way for meaningful personal and professional relationships. From there, you'll learn how to expand these small talk techniques to effectively manage your network, with practical tips for phone calls, email outreach, and navigating unexpected interactions.
A key part of the workshop will be learning how to succinctly convey your research interests in just 20 words or less, ensuring your ideas are communicated clearly and powerfully. Tim will also delve into the differences between academic and professional interactions, providing you with the insights needed to navigate both environments successfully.
