A big thank you to all the women, and the event’s sponsor -M&T Bank’s Greg Smith, who attended WIT training. We had a great showing, learned some great tips and 

practiced our networking skills. The benefits of attending these WIT events and networking sessions is to build confidence and expand your network in a comfortable environment. 

Here are some of the helpful tips the trainer, Marcia, shared:

1. When you make initial introductions, be sure to repeat the person’s name.
2. Try to make a comment or association with your name.
3. When you introduce yourself, help others remember your name by giving them a tip. And example would be “Hi. My name is Angie… like Angie’s List.” 
4. Be prepared -make your networking count. Ask open ended questions and try to stimulate meaningful conversation. What do you want to get out of your network event? What can you offer someone else?

Each year Smart CEO recognizes the 50 fastest growing companies in the Baltimore/Washington  area, based on a three-year average of employee and revenue growth. These companies represent the future of the region’s economy and embody the spirit of leadership and success in their industries. 

President and CEO, Angie Lienert, was profiled in the January 2013 issue of Baltimore Smart CEO magazine. 

“This year, we moved from a partnership to a woman-owned business following the buyout of my founding partner. This has allowed us to renew our commitment to, and enthusiasm in, the original purpose of our company and to build the right team to go after and win prime contracts. We have also expanded our offices and our market space, allowing us to secure new partnerships.” 

“A great leader has the ability to continue to succeed, even when faced with adversity. A great leader takes care of her people while making sure the company grows and develops. A great leader makes sure her front line troops get the support they need to do a great job. I make good decisions. I embrace challenges. I show up.”

IntelliGenesis thanks our amazing employees for helping us win this award three years running!
