Career Networking Expert Comes To Roswell

Staff Report

Job seekers will have the opportunity to learn from renowned networking expert Susan Knox at a free employment conference in Roswell.

Corporate Connections President Susan Knox will be featured at the Roswell United Methodist Church’s Job Networking “Journey Together” event on Monday, Aug. 11. The event is free and open to the public, including non-church members.

Knox’s workshop, entitled “It’s Not Who You Know, It’s Who Knows You,” will give attendees practical networking tips in today’s always connected corporate environment.

“This is a way for me to give back to the community and share my insight with neighbors in our region who need help finding employment,” Knox said. “I will be sharing some of the same strategies I share with CEOs of major companies.”

The event will be held at the church, located at 814 Mimosa Boulevard.

Last year, the conference was featured on nationally syndicated radio host and consumer advisor Clark Howard’s program, and attracted a crowd of more than 300 attendees.

Knox brings more than 28 years of experience as a successful business owner in the Atlanta region. In 1999, Knox founded Corporate Connections, a consulting firm specializing in business development strategy, implementation and execution.

The Marietta-based company works with clients in various sectors throughout the country, including technology, real estate, financial, healthcare, legal, telecommunications, consumer brands and transportation.

Prior to establishing Corporate Connections, Knox owned and operated the largest jewelry wholesale company in the Southeast, The Regency Collection. For 13 years, Knox designed and created private collections for jewelry manufacturers and sold them to high-end boutiques.
