"Deck the Halls with Business Cards and Holly ..."
"Networking for dummies" workshop and STEMPRA Christmas Party
Will you be working the room at all those Christmas parties or just quietly scoffing the mince pies in the corner? Will you end up with some solid new contacts the next day or just a nasty hangover?
Networking is a major part of our jobs, but many of us still break out in a cold sweat at the idea of introducing ourselves to a stranger at a party. And even when we've managed to strike up a conversation, it's no guarantee it will get us anywhere.
Join STEMPRA for a Xmas special as TV expert Robert Phipps, of "Big Brother's Little Brother" and "Trisha Goddard" fame provides an insightful and fun workshop into how you can polish your networking skills. Then join us for mulled wine, mince pies and (gulp) a chance to put your skills into practice.
Date: 18:30 Tuesday 5 December 2006
Location: Wellcome Trust, 215 Euston Rd, London
The event is free to members. Entry for non-members is £20, which includes annual membership to STEMPRA.
PLEASE NOTE: Although the event is free to members, we still need to know numbers for catering purposes. Non-members should bring either cash or a cheque made payable to "STEMPRA" with them on 5 December.

STEMPRA is an informal group set up in 1993 to bring together people working in professional communication in learned societies, professional bodies, research institutes and other predominantly non-commercial organisations in science, technology, engineering and medicine.
STEMPRA offers the opportunity for PR practitioners to get together to share information and expertise - a sort of 'clearing house', discussion forum and networking club rolled into one.
