| About BNI
The essence of BNI is that although the meeting takes place at
breakfast the sole reason for coming is to network!
Meetings are focussed on generating business for the participants
and there are no secondary agendas.
At the heart of the BNI meeting is the "60 Second Speech"
slot. This is each member's opportunity to tell everyone at the
meeting all about their business, the kind of leads they are looking
for, and anything at all that will help the other members generate
business for them.
60 seconds may seem to be the briefest of speeches, but BNI have
developed a system to harness the power of this format, and regularly
organise free training workshops to allow the members to develop
their presentations, introducing techniques such as the memory hook,
and effective ways to ensure that the message is remembered.
This system has immense practical benefits outside BNI, where in
in real-life networking situations, the BNI member is trained to
be able to give an instant and concise account of what they do.
