What Does it Do? • Gives you the chance to meet and speak with attendees from other White Rose organisations, which makes it much easier to contact them following the event. • Allows you to meet as many people as possible in the shortest time and with minimum fuss.
How does it work? • Everyone is allocated a colour (see the chart at the entrance) take a seat at the table with the corresponding colour. This ensures that people from different organisation can meet each other • A WRAG rep. is allocated to each table. • When the powerpoint indicates “Go” the WRAG rep. will speak for the first minute. • The bell rings/ powerpoint changes to “Next”, this signifies that the speaker should stop and the person to the right of the speaker should start. • And so on until everyone on the table has spoken.
What Should you Say? • Each person will introduce themselves and speak to their table for one minuteonly about (i) your role (ii) anything you do which supports research or anything research-related you’d like to know more about (iii) why you’ve come today
At The End of the Session The table should briefly identify and note on the Genius Note provided: • Common role themes • Unique roles • If they have any aspirations for their role These notes will then be displayed for perusal and discussion throughout the day.
Don’t Forget • Networking will help you to develop contacts • Any successful networker will tell you that the golden rule in any networking is ‘following up’. • Don’t wait for people to contact you. • Sending people an email is fine, but a phone call is much friendlier and will ensure you are better remembered. • Speed networking is most effective in the weeks and months following the event – and if you avoid following up with people, you’ll only have wasted your time.
