H&H August Happy Hour goes backstage for Speed Networking Event
You asked, we listened and it was a huge success. Our first speed networking event was hosted at Puckett's Backstage. I have to be honest, I was very hesitant about hosting a speed networking event as that is not our style. In Heels, we encourage our attendees to have intentional conversations and really get to know the person. I was afraid with this style of event we wouldn't be true to who we are. However; to my surprise everyone loved this event. I had a couple attendees tell me they were so grateful for this format because they were able to meet so many people that they wouldn't normally have had the chance to connect with in one night.
