Some may say that the topic of yesterday’s Career Conversations workshop was the most important of all the topics we present through this weekly series. The ability to set the tone for a meaningful conversation, where you’re sharing critical information, attempting to develop lasting dialogue, and achieve objectives can be tricky and filled with minor obstacles. Since we believe networking, no matter the situation or environment, can be an incredible tool to creating opportunities, the elevator pitch plays an important role.

The group of workshop participants spent time talking through four discussion points…

• the value of your Why or purpose when crafting the elevator pitch
• when the elevator pitch is used
• steps to putting the elevator together
• basic tips when presenting the pitch

The video below is a recap of the lessons shared during the workshop.
