The Bangor Public Library and SCORE Northern Maine will host an online presentation, "How Do You Network?" by Ashleigh Briggs-Davis of Briggs Solutions for Business, on Wednesday, November 12 from 12-1 PM.
As entrepreneurs and professionals, the questions we ask can make or break the connections we build. This interactive session will explore how to approach peers, mentors, and industry contacts in ways that spark meaningful conversations instead of shutting doors. You’ll learn practical strategies for framing questions that invite insight, build trust, and open new opportunities—whether you’re exploring a new industry, validating an idea, or growing your current business. Ashleigh will cover:
How to identify the “right” questions for the situation
Ways to ask without overwhelming or alienating the other person
Techniques for turning conversations into actionable takeaways
Tips for creating reciprocal value so people want to keep engaging
By the end, you’ll walk away with a toolkit for asking better questions—and getting better answers—that will help you make more informed decisions and strengthen your professional network.
