By Patricia Maloney, Career Coach, Sli Nua Careers (Galway)
If you have tired of networking – be it for job-seeking or business development purposes – here’s a novel approach to get you back on the rails.Galway Chamber and Iarnród Eireann have teamed up for a special Speed Networking Event on Thursday next, November 6th, 2014.
Patricia Maloney, Career Coach, Tel: 091 528 883
The networking takes place on the train from Galway to Ballinasloe and back.
I have always felt the train is an under-used facility. Could we have barbers on there? Theatre shows? Shoe-shine?
The ingredients are there: time to spare, people in the same place, nothing else to do bar flicking open the laptop, and flicking open the laptop isn’t for everyone.
More on this networking event HERE. I suspect it could be the start of something big.
