Welcome to 'Join the Dots', a series of events hosted by Andy Hall, Chris Marsh and Andrew Thorp. We are three business professionals who formed a long-standing friendship through the Manchester networking scene.
Why 'Join the Dots'?
The name is based on a concept of networking that works like this:
When you meet someone new that's the equivalent of 'collecting a dot'. But the real magic starts when you find ways to create meaningful connections between them - yes, join the dots!
So, the aim of ‘JTD’ is to facilitate that process; making introductions but helping you find ways to create value through these connections.
But that's just the half of it…
These events are perhaps best described as a ‘conversational workshop’!
There’s a strong learning component (and hopefully a healthy dose of inspiration), but it’s not as costly or time-consuming as a normal workshop. We put a lot of thought into helping you take something valuable away from the interactive learning section, but there’s plenty of time too for relaxed conversation – and dot-joining!
Areas we cover in the learning section:
- effective networking
- brand-building (storytelling)
- personal growth and well-being
