Have career questions? Want answers? Speed coaching is your opportunity to get informal advice and fresh perspectives on your career interests from managers and recruiters. Modeled after the "speed dating" concept, participants meet one-on-one with several different coaches in sessions lasting ten minutes each. Expand your network, get fresh insights, and meet colleagues before the conference starts!

...And Don't Miss the Networking Mixer

Whether you're a seasoned veteran interested in mingling with the next wave of "young turks" or a young professional who wants to meet experienced managers, you are invited to a networking mixer immediately following the welcoming reception. Students, scholarship recipients, fellows, and others will be recognized. Donations will be collected to fund travel stipends for student members to attend the 2010 annual conference. Attire is business casual; wear your name badge and bring your business cards! This event is complimentary but also requires preregistration because of space limitations.

• To RSVP, fill out the information at http://icma.org/events/index.cfm?event=CON7/FEE, (make sure it says "Next Generation Networking Mixer" at the top).
