- **Event Description**: Turning Introductions into Real RelationshipsAbout this EventWe’re trained to identify commonalities among audiences.But in professional rooms, we often default to credentials, titles, and surface-level connections.In this interactive luncheon session, Jessica Gruber will lead a live, large-format mind-mapping experience designed to challenge how we approach networking and relationship-building. Instead of focusing on meeting more people or delivering a polished pitch, participants will explore how shared context, perspective, and experience create the relationships that actually drive referrals, collaborations, and long-term growth.Through a structured, collaborative exercise, attendees will uncover where commonality already exists — and how to intentionally recognize and name it in future conversations.At the core is one simple framework:Connection + Commonality = RelationshipParticipants will leave with a sharper lens for industry events, client conversations, partnerships, and follow-ups — and a practical way to move beyond transactional networking.Jessica Gruber is the Founder of Buzzworks Creations and the Chief Operating Officer of Success Champion Networking, a national B2B networking organization. She works at the intersection of marketing strategy, positioning, and relationship-driven growth.With over a decade of experience building brands and scaling professional communities, Jessica focuses on a question most professionals overlook: why do some connections turn into real momentum while others quietly stall?Through her work with agencies, business owners, and leadership teams, she helps organizations clarify their positioning, strengthen their networks, and build systems that create long-term opportunity. Known for her clear, practical approach, Jessica challenges surface-level networking and replaces it with intentional relationship-building rooted in shared context and commonality.Whether working with marketing teams, entrepreneurs, or community leaders, her focus remains the same: connection alone isn’t enough — relationships are built through common ground.Agenda11:30 - 12PM Arrival and Networking12PM - 1PM  Presentation (Lunch is included)

                "description": "The Oklahoma City Ad Club has a rich heritage. We are theoldest, continuously active business organizationin OKC. Our club was formed in 1907 — a few months before statehood. There were no other civic clubs, so our social luncheon-meeting format attracted city business leaders and the few advertising professionals. Notable such as: E.K. Gaylord and John A. Brown attended club luncheons in the early years.Becoming a Public ServiceThe roaring 20s brought an element of unethical advertising to the growing city. The Ad Club acted quickly by forming a watchdog committee — which later became theBetter Business Bureau. Later, we sponsored activities to lift community’ spirits which had been dampened by The Depression. Ourclub promoted causesas the Red Cross, United Way, and Safety Council. We later recognized these effort through the creation of the Distinguished Service and Silver Medal awards — still given annually today.Promoting Industry ExcellenceIn 1958, we held ourfirst excellence in advertising awardsin the form of a Direct Mail Advertising competition. In 1968, it was replaced by the American Advertising Association Awards (ADDYs).In the mid-60s, our clubstarted giving scholarshipsfor students majoring in advertising — at colleges and universities offering advertising degrees. Now, the primary goal of our club is promoting educational opportunities in advertising.Our Continuing TraditionThe OKC Ad Club’s tradition of service to the industry and the community continues as ourmembers reach new heightsthrough education and professional opportunities."
