"Having completed one of Tricia's courses, and practicing my networking skills at a couple of her salons, I finally had the confidence to use a work social event for networking with the wonderful result that I am now working a secondment in a different area of the business, and really enjoying it. The experience will really stand to me in whatever I do next, whether in my old job or moving forward. Networking really works!! Thank you Tricia."
