September 18, 9am
Location: Memory Gardens Memorial Park
Address: 1395 Arnold Lane, Medford, OR 97501
Speaker: Erin Greeno, Retirement Connection
Topic: Networking Connections
Networking connections can take many forms, each with unique value. A referral opens doors through trusted introductions, a resource offers expertise and guidance, and a partner collaborates for shared success. Understanding the difference helps you build stronger, more intentional relationships that drive both personal and professional growth.
- Referral: Leverages trust—someone connects you directly to a need or opportunity.
- Resource: Provides knowledge or tools that support decision-making.
- Partner: Builds a collaborative, ongoing relationship with mutual benefit.
