NEPPA Webinar Series

NEPPA and Collaborative Learning, Inc. have partnered to offer a series of four 1-hour webinars to help NEPPA members better understand regulatory requirements, leadership skills, a changing workforce, and emerging technologies in the utility industry.

The NEPPA Webinar Series is being offered as part of NEPPA’s Public Utility Management Program (PUMP). Participation in at least two of four webinars is expected as part of completing PUMP.

The 1-Hour Professional Networking Webinar will be held Thursday, November 5th beginning at 11:00 am and covers the following:

• What Networking Is and What It Is not
• Why Networking Is Important
• How to Identify Networking Opportunities
• How to Employ Different Methods for Networking

Networking is an important way to engage with others for the purpose of exchanging information and building relationships.

In this webinar, we will explore together the opportunities that networking offers for public power leaders to continuously expand and renew their knowledge and awareness…enhance their leadership skills and impact…even find new approaches that others have used successfully to handle difficult situations and problems.

We will also explore the benefits and limitations of various networking methods and ways to keep your network viable and useful to you and your networking colleagues.
