1. Easy Speed Networking Method

2. Efficient Speed Networking Method

Speed networking for business professionals is increasing in popularity

3. Based on the concept of speed dating

Each participant gets 30 seconds to present themselves to a potential date

4. Usually set up such that the men rotate seats while the ladies remain seated. But what happens when the ladies or men want to meet each other? 5. Efficient Speed Networking Method

A different rotation plan is needed to ensure that everyone meets everyone else

6. The basics of this method are the same:

Participants are paired together in a two lines

7. One line presents their 30 second commercial to the person standing opposite them 8. The other line then presents their commercial 9. Then, everyone moves, except for one lucky participant....the Fixed Position Participant, or FPP 10. Efficient Speed Networking Method

The following slides illustrate the rotation method, keep clicking forward to see the participants move

11. With this method everyone will meet everyone else in the shortest amount of time

10 participants should be done in 9 minutes

12. 20 participants should be done in 19 minutes 13. Plus, of course, the time it takes to change positions Ready?! 14. 4 Efficient Speed Networking Method 3 Top Row Presents Commercial First Rotation 3 1 2 7 5 6 8 15.

Remember the pattern and repeat until everyone has met everyone else

36. Works for an odd number of people as well

Although there will always be one person not talking during a rotation

37. Just designate an empty space between two participants and make sure those participants keep the empty space between them. Happy Speed Networking! Efficient Speed Networking Method
