Networking doesn’t have to feel forced, awkward, or performative. Join NEXTWork, NEXTGen Detroit and Gesher's top-shelf networking program for a confidence-building evening with Michelle Gilbert, Chief Engine Officer of Purple Engine Coaching at Pop's for Italian in Ferndale. In her interactive presentation, “From Cringe to Confidence: Mastering Authentic Networking,” Michelle will help us replace networking anxiety with a clear, confident approach to creating authentic connections. We’ll learn how to prepare with intention, engage in real conversations and follow up in ways that feel natural rather than transactional. By focusing on practical strategies and real-world scenarios, this session aims to move us from self-conscious or uncertain to grounded, purposeful and confident in how we build and sustain professional relationships.
$18 per person includes presentation, networking, a drink ticket and light appetizers (kosher style).
A certified kosher option is available upon request.
Please RSVP by February 20 at
