The strength of any group is the INTERACTION that members have with one another. Now for any of you that have been to meetings lately, you have noticed that the room is BUZZING with activity. Heck! It is hard for Della to get our attention to start a meeting and when the meeting is over many of us still hang out and talk more. That is SO awesome, but it is one night a month.
Then, we have our Blog/Newsletter that has been fantastic for members to share their celebrations and general news throughout the month, but it is not as condusive to CONVERSATION.
So, we created the LinkedIN group to allow us to network on an even deeper level.
What is so great about a LinkedIN group?
This group is restricted to NAWBO CIL members only. No one else can see the conversations. You can choose to get emailed when conversations are happening, or you can go straight to the site to participate in a conversation.
Have a business problem? Have a personal problem? Want other NAWBO members to discuss a book with you? Want to share a great article you just read? Want the collective knowledge of the group to help and support you? This is the place to start a discussion. The possibilities are endless. You are free to post your discussion items 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. As other members have knowledge or perspective to share, they respond.
So How Do I Join? What is the Cost?
That is the cool part! There is NO COST to join LinkedIn.
If you already have a linkedin account, we have contacted you through LikedIn to join the group. Just click the link and join.
If you don't have a linkedin account, Go to www.LinkedIn.com and look to the right of the screen. Fill in your name and email and the password you want to use and voila! You have an account. You will be taken to a profile sreen that you can fill out as much or as little as you want to about yourself. (I suggest a lot - that is how people find you on the internet - I have gotten great contacts and clients just through my LinkedIn page!) Once you have a profile set up, go to the group link (http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=801787) and click join.
