BNI in How to Work a Room

Susan RoAne's book How to Work a Room, the seminal book on interacting in social settings, recently has been updated. The book addresses issues we must consider when attending professional and social events. (This is NOT a networking book—RoAne's The Secrets of Savvy Networking is.) It offers practical strategies for mingling, interacting, schmoozing, and building common bonds. It includes chapters on roadblocks and remedies, preparation, small talk, specific events (fundraisers, trade shows, reunions, social parties, and conferences), and how NOT to work a room (in the chapter "Mr. or Ms. Sleaze Works a Room or How Not to Do It").

Since its original publication 18 years ago, the basic social and business dilemmas have not changed. But technology has, giving us more opportunities to be rude. Those breaches, she points out, could impact our careers, businesses, and reputations. There are revised chapters on "How to Work an Audience" as well as "Charm and Chutzpah." There is even a mention of BNI and Ivan Misner on page 181!

It's the perfect book for anyone who walks into events, meetings, conferences, or parties with people they don't know but want to meet.
