Join the Professional Edge program for an interactive workshop designed to empower you with tools to take your outreach and engagement to the next level!

We'll guide you through strategies to alleviate conversational stress and build confidence in new interactions so you can best represent your organization while tabling or doing other types of outreaches. From icebreakers to in-depth discussions, you'll learn how to curate conversations that make a lasting impact. We will also explore techniques for active listening, asking open-ended questions, and sharing your club or department's message with ease. Say goodbye to boring interactions, and hello to engaging conversations.
