Do you need an elevator speech when you're about to meet a roomful of new people? (Hint: maybe not). Why does networking matter and how can you get better at it? What is a "co-pilot" and how can they help you network? Our guest today, Bill Imada, has the answers. Bill is the founder of the National Millennial and Gen Z Community, or NMGZ for short. NMGZ is made up of college and university students, young professionals, faculty, administrators, and civic leaders who participate in multi-generational conversations with an eye towards the future. Since its founding, over 1,000 students from more than forty colleges and universities have engaged in these conversations with business leaders from all over the world. The NMGZ community that Bill founded recently received the inaugural Distinguished Mentoring Organization Award from the Martin Center.
