In many cases you are the smartest one in the room. So how do you best communicate your brilliance, get others onboard, and accomplish the task at hand whether it's raising venture capital, finding team members, or making a pitch to a prospect?

Join IEEE Consultants Network, Boston Section, for an informative and lively conversation that will help you succeed both personally and professionally.

Presenter: Diane Darling

In order to overcome her fear of public speaking, Diane Darling took acting and standup comedy classes. That out-of-the-box and strategic mindset has been a contributing factor to her success. She was even the commencement speaker at MIT Charm School (yes there is such a thing).

A pioneer in social networking, McGraw-Hill commissioned Diane Darling to write the definitive book on networking in 2003 (before Facebook or LinkedIn) called The Networking Survival Guide. It went into a 2nd printing just 90 days after the book hit the shelves.

Collectively her books have been translated into 9 languages.
She has taught at Harvard Business School, 20th Century Fox, Cisco Systems, Bank of America, University of Texas Law School to name a few clients.

She has appeared on NBC Nightly News, in The Wall Street Journal, San Francisco Chronicle, and The Boston Globe. She is a member of the CEO Club. Currently she blogs on LinkedIn.

She has lived in the Philippines, Thailand, Colorado, Indiana, Alabama and now in Boston, MA. Her travels include all seven continents and approximately 60 countries.
