RRAH - Next Meeting is Today, Sep. 3rd!

Please join us in welcoming Rich Alterman as our guest speaker at the Roswell Rotary After Hours meeting tonight! The meeting will take place at The Artillery Room at Gate City at 6:30 PM. Rich is an EVP of Business Development for GDS Link, and he will be speaking on the importance on being a good networker and tips on how to do it, as well as discussing your personal brand.

Rich would like you to prepare a personal brand statement before the meeting as he wants this to be a very interactive meeting so please be prepared to share. You can choose to develop one based on what you feel your personal brand is today or what you would like your personal brand to be in the future. Some points to consider are: “What motivates you?”, “What are some unique things about you?”, “What are your personal values?”, and “What makes you happy?”

Click here for the guide Rich recommends using prior to the meeting. We look forward to seeing you all there!
