Saturday Feb 4th London Tap House event in Toronto

Few weeks ago got a great Facebook message from Ravi Amir if I was interested in speaking about networking success at an evening event he had organized. I was intrigued and developed talk called “How to become a Dating Success in less than 30 days” Looked forward to sharing my experience and insights. As it turned out talk didn’t happen due to timing but we did do some one on one session with a few participants. Below is a brief comment:
Bhanu Rana made this statement “ Jim, thanks for the short talk, your insight and positive attitude turned my night around, it turned out to be great night after all!”

Sunday February 5th JPL (Junior Leadership Program) in association with Go Vision

As mention earlier got great referral at the Toronto Finance Network event from Mira Sirotic (CMA). It was full house of students in 1st and 2nd year at the Hart House (University of Toronto Campus). HSBC was the sponsor of the event and had representatives from multiple branches. Due to last minute change we had opportunity to speak for 15 minutes to the group (brought my USB with my presentation just in case).

It was great to share my insight and experience on the journey of meeting mentors who affected my life in some many ways. From my earlier mentors Max Haroon, Terry Gogna to current mentors Patrick Bizindavyi, Marc Gordon (www.marctv.com)
Peter Chung consultant and University of Toronto alumni shared his paths of success and inspired attendees to continue to learn everyday and never stop.

Moral of the story:
Opportunities are everyone and it all begins with networking and meeting people everywhere you go. Follow up and getting results will get you lesson and experience to share with others.
