Entrepreneurial Collaboration & Partnership

The Introvert's Guide to Negotiation Tactics and Strategic Alliances / Thursday, October 13, 2011 / 1-2:15pm EST/10-11:15am PST / Building strategic alliances can be a tricky strategy to use in business. If done properly, all parties benefit from the relationship; if done poorly, all parties could experience negativity in the market (reputation, brand damage, etc.) Drawing on the experience of two expert panelists, we'll discuss the ins and outs, ups and downs of what it takes to form a successful partnership.

Setting Priorities & Boundaries

The Healthy, Wealthy & Wise Introvert / Thursday, October 20, 2011 / 1-2:15pm EST/10-11:15am PST / What are you willing to do - or NOT do - to get what you really want? The answer isn’t as simple as you might think, but it does hold the key to whether or not you achieve your goals. This session brings together three successful entrepreneurs who explore how your introversion can move you forward or hold you back, how you may be short-circuiting your own success (and what to do about it), and why the push to "go, go,go" sometimes needs to be answered with "stop, stop, stop."

Authentic Marketing & Promotion

Authentic Marketing, Introvert Style / Thursday, October 27, 2011 / 1-2:15pm EST/10-11:15am PST / Noisy. Crowded. Full of bright, shiny objects. The arena in which we're promoting ourselves and our businesses is all of these things and more. How do introverts stand out while staying true to who they are? By being approachable, authentic and prepared. This lively panel discussion will bring together experts who offer insights and advice to support a more personal, relationship-based approach to marketing and promotion.

Energy Management

Enhancing Your Ability to Cope with Stress and Manage Your Energy / Thursday, October 6, 2011 / 1-2:15pm EST/10-11:15am PST / Few things are a bigger drain on your energy than stress in the workplace. Regardless of whether you're in a corporate office or a home office, you're often dealing with limited resources and time, while balancing increasing demands to be more productive. If you're wondering if you can juggle it all and still keep your sanity, Dr. Pamela Straker's presentation will put you back in control.
