CCIS’ Youth Hub clients had an amazing time at our youth networking event this morning as they discussed the topic, “Creating meaningful connections: How to turn your network into your net worth.”The event which took place in CCIS’ Northwest Office explored the importance of genuine conversations and building authentic relationships, including through professional social media platforms like LinkedIn.

A big thank you to our guest speaker Denys Smushko, Manager of Business Development for Newcomers at RBC for sharing valuable insights and empowering our newcomer youth with the tools they need for success in their careers .

If you missed out on this event, don't worry! There will be more opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals.

"Despite popular opinion, networking is not about meeting every person in the room and giving your perfectly practiced elevator pitch. Your time is too valuable to spend on outdated methods like this. The key is to engage in real conversations and develop meaningful connections. Getting real results from networking requires taking the time to build relationships first." – Forbes
