The Art of Networking – Having fun and training

On the afternoon of June 6 with the help of my good friend Kai Roer we delivered a 3 hours training “The Art of Networking – Go Beyond Expectations”.

I had so much fun, great participants, more than 50; many of those attended also my JCI Presenter course, so it was training among friend that wanted to learn and have fun in the process.

The German-Hungarian Night

After a day of training, nothing better than to go party, but not too late because next day is training day again.

It was a great time to see great friends in a fun environment.

Being Head Trainer at JCI Presenter

In Turku I had a fantastic experience by being Head Trainer of JCI Presenter, that was only possible with two great Assistant Trainers, Ismail Haznedar (JCI Turkey) and Kai Roer (JCI Norway) aka Mr. Freeze.

But a training course is only great with great participants and we got the best twelve, thank you all.

Gala night in Bursa

Because of an early flight I didn't enjoyed the gala night until the end, nevertheless I can say that I got the best good-bye ever with a real tunnel of people shouting my name and saying good-bye.

Also the President of JCI Turkey Alp Limoncuoglu and project director Ela Ucel were very kind to me. My thanks go to them for inviting me to this wonderful opportunity to meet in action the members of JCI Turkey.

Also I'm thankful to all the members of JCI Turkey that were great to me during my stay, hope to see you all soon.

Original Pick-Up Tour

After a seminar nothing like a Pick-Up tour across the Mudanya (Bursa) with great people from JCI Turkey.

Fun all the way!!!

Seminar in Bursa

With a new traveling companion added, Abidin, we continue to Bursa to a national training event of JCI Turkey where we got a great reception.

After a lunch in great companion, as seen in photo, it was time to deliver the "Self-Knowledge" seminar for 20 participants. It was a great sharing experience.

Seminar to JCI Eskisehir

After 4 hours driving with great companion, Turgul and Arif, we arrived to the heart of the Asian side of Turkey, where I was invited by JCI Eskisehir to deliver my 'Self Knowledge' seminar to an audience of about 80 members and non-members of JCI.
