Stories
What's up with networking?
 
 
 

Rotary Business LinkUps are not “grip and grin” networking sessions! They’re dynamic and demanding: we 
have speed rounds tackling two challenging and important questions. These questions are: 

1. What makes a great presentation to a board of directors? 
2. How do you set a boundary of sanity between work and home? 
 Why attend? 
• Tap an unsurpassed referral network 
• Build friendships and business 
• Discuss big ideas with Madison’s best business minds 
• Give new members a chance to tell their story 
• Make our Rotary club the place for business networking 
 No cost (cash bar). Thanks to the Madison Club’s Mary Gaffney-Ward for hosting us. 
 Who can attend? This event is not limited to Rotary members. Feel free to invite fellow professionals and 
executives who like a challenge. 
 Reservations required. Email or phone Rotary (above) if you plan to attend. If you bring a guest, please 
provide their name, email and company name. 
 Agenda 
• 4:45 Cash bar chitchat (bring business cards) 
• 5:00 Welcome and new member spotlights (4 minutes each) 
• 5:15 4-person rotating “speed” discussions on the two questions Rotary Club of Madison, 22 N. Carroll St., Ste. 202, Madison, WI 53703, 608-255-9164, rotaryoffice@rotarymadison.org Page 3 of 6
