“The Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation Southside Centre has contracted Vicki Sparks of ConnectWorking to conduct two workshops on “Effective Networking”. Vicki was selected after careful consideration of organisations and presenters available with demonstrable expertise in this subject. In their course feedback, attendees rated the workshops “excellent” with one attendee stating “this workshop was the best QLD Government Business workshop we have attended”. I would not hesitate to recommend Vicki Sparks to other departmental centres, businesses, and individuals for the delivery of networking workshops.”

“Vicki is an excellent communicator and passionate trainer. Her natural ability of making the students feel at ease along with the excellent and comprehensive content results in the students gaining incredible confidence and many skills that will see them in good stead. By the end of the 3 hours the change is obvious and impressive. I have seen students go from being concerned about the idea of business to feeling completely at ease knowing that business networking is not the scary environment many feel it is. The training is very practical which includes techniques in how to overcome fear, how to write effective infomercials that get attention and rapport building role playing activities. I have no hesitation in recommending any organisation to having Vicki conduct her training as she is an expert in this area of marketing.”
