Each year I look forward to moderating the "Art of Schmoozing" panel, which combines my passion for the New York City Bar, relationship building, and personal branding. I'm especially excited to be collaborating this year with my dear friends and colleagues, and relationship building experts, Stefanie Marrone and Aréal Allen-Stewart!

I hope you will join us at the New York City Bar for this in-person panel. See below for more details!

The Art of Schmoozing
Tuesday, March 21, 2023 | 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
New York City Bar Association, 42 West 44th Street | NYC

Speakers: 
Paula T. Edgar, CEO, PGE Consulting Group LLC and NYC Bar Board Member

The art of schmoozing, otherwise known as networking with a purpose, is as important as ever for career and business development. Join our discussion about how to develop your schmoozing skills, and how to effectively and professionally speak to new contacts, colleagues, and even potential mentors in the virtual landscape as well as in person. 

We will cover the "dos and don'ts" of networking, the effective use of social media, and how to develop, maintain, and refresh professional relationships through networking endeavors.   

Please note that this session is not just for new lawyers. Whether you are a student, a new lawyer or an experienced attorney, you will gain valuable insights and practical tips on how to improve your networking skills and develop meaningful professional relationships. 

I look forward to seeing you there!
