On January 15, 2009 I had the pleasure to meet several well-known business executives from Louisiana during our Networking meeting at Loyola University for the business communications students. Listed below are five executives I had the pleasure of meeting. Meredith M. Hartley, the Director of Public Affairs and External Relations at Loyola University of New Orleans. Before entering this position, Hartley operated a full-service marketing and public relations consulting company in Charleston, SC and the public relations manager for Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System in Spartanburg, SC. Next, Michelle K. Johnston, Ph.D. holder and Business Communication teacher at Loyola University of New Orleans, is an Associate Professor of Management and Director of the Executive Mentoring Program at Loyola. John J. Zoolinger IV is the Regional Manager for Regions Financial Corporation as well as Homebuilder Financer and Senior Vice-President for Regions. Brian A. Gueniot, a consultant for business, leadership, sales, and human resources consulting as well as the Director of Human Resources and Development at the Standard Companies, INC. Last but not least, my mentor David Jacobs, a project manager at Unisys Inc and an MBA in Finance from Loyola University of New Orleans.
One thing I accomplished well during this event is finally ensuring me on what major I will be pursuing along with how important a firm handshake can be. Something I could improve would be my direction toward people and how I present myself. Businessknowhow is a useful site for networking as well.
