Getting to Know Those At Your Table • You should have some pennies in the center of
the table • Take one and pass around - all need a penny
• There is a “cheat sheet” in the center of the
table of adjectives listed alphabetically (you may have better ones). You’ll have to share!

Getting to Know Those At Your Table • In the next 1-2 minutes think about: • A good adjective that starts with the
same letter as your first name • Based on the year of your penny – what significant thing happened to you during that year, or what were you doing during that year Conference 2015: “Business Agility – The Power of Collaboration and eConnectivity”

Getting to Know Those At Your Table • Your table will have roughly 4-5 minutes to
share: • Your name with the adjective in front of it • Your company name • The year of your penny • Quick – what significant thing happened during that year,
or what were you doing in that year?: • Remember each person only has about 30 seconds,
so be sure you are able to get completely around your table. Conference 2015: “Business Agility – The Power of Collaboration and eConnectivity”

Getting to Know Others • Please place your penny inside your name tag • When you are at networking sessions, meals or
breaks, if you see someone with a penny in their name tag, you’ll know they were in this session. • Introduce yourself (with the adjective) and ask them about their penny! • You may be here by yourself, but you’re not alone!
