KC Business Networking
**Welcome to CIBN Connect’s Kansas City networking group! We believe in powerful networking with lots of encouragement, and few rules. This is why we’ve created learning tools to empower our members to get the most out of their networking experience:** **[SMART Networking the book](https://thecibn.spiffy.co/checkout/smart-networking)** **[The CIBN browser extension for LinkedIn](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/cibn-connect/maeledjnimgpjecfhjchkdcecmboebjb)** **Our video training portal** **Quarterly goal sessions** **[Our Youtube Channel](https://youtu.be/cTkttOo183k)** **At our meetings you can expect a high amount of appointments, because we coach our members to proactively seek out referrals and referral sharing partnerships. You can also enjoy an environment where people don’t hard sell you! Because, as a community, we’ve all agreed that cornering a stranger into a pitch is not classy.** **Our meeting formats are designed to be member serving! We allow members and guests to speak for longer periods of time, and we have fewer presentations, so that you have the opportunity to make an impression and book more appointments from our meetings.** **We offer different online meeting styles with varying degrees of facilitation/structure so that you can find the format that works best for you. Here are some of our weekly club meetings that you may be invited to:** **SMART Networking Club** **-A networking event that focuses on best practices for networking** **Easy Breezy Networking Club** **-A lighthearted networking event that is designed to be a fun end to your day** **Positively Women’s Networking Club** **-A positive women’s led networking space** **Boss Networking Club** **-A productive and more structured networking event** **Our online meetings are designed to help you meet business owners, entrepreneurs, and experts from all over the Western world. However, if your services have geographical limitations, then our LinkedIn browser extension will help you meet people wherever you like. In addition, we are also open to helping highly motivated individuals host local events with our Meetup groups.** **Check out our [website](https://thecibn.com/)**

New Friends Network

Olathe, KS

New Friends Network
This Meetup group is for men and women in and around the Kansas City area who are interested in socializing and making new acquaintances and friendships in social settings. Our main objective is to meet new friends and enjoy fun events together. It's been a lot of fun so far! If you'd like to join but feel nervous about not knowing anyone in the group, either **Jan, John, Ed, the Event Hosts** or **I'll (Jeff)** be there to make sure you feel comfortable and welcome. **The Co-organizers and Event Hosts of this group are fantastic people and as far as I'm concerned the best we could possibly have to make this all work.** Our group is diverse, we enjoy welcoming new members at our events and we always welcome your ideas and feedback. Some things we like to do include happy hours, live events, live music, festivals and fairs, Pickleball, ball games, hockey games, car races, dancing, going to wineries and socializing. We also have an annual Christmas Party and in 4 years have donated over $1000 in gifts, food and supplies to local charities. Some of our goals are to have a minimum of one event per week, listen to all ideas from the group, welcome all people who attend each event the way we were welcomed our first time attending, make good friends and most of all just have FUN. We understand schedules change and conflicts occur, but if you sign up for an event and cannot attend, we appreciate you changing your RSVP as early as possible. This allows others an opportunity to attend. WAYS TO GET REMOVED FROM THE GROUP - We strive to make all our events safe, fun and drama free for all members. Any of the actions listed below will be dealt with promptly. \* Any member that has signed up for the group with a name or picture that is not your actual name or actual picture will be removed immediately. Honesty and integrity are important to us.  \*Removal from the group will be a unanimous decision from the leadership team.  We reserve the right to remove any member for any of the reasons listed above using our discretion. While we would prefer to never remove anyone from the group we will not hesitate to do so if we deem that anyone is doing anything to damage the groups reputation or any of the group members at our events. In addition, we expect that same behavior with venues staff and property. The venues we go to often make accommodations such as brining in additional staff to serve us. There are many other groups in the area that are available if a member is removed from this group. We will usually talk with you first if we have concerns but that may not always be the case depending on the circumstances. While dating may occur within the group we sincerely request that when someone says no that means no. **This group is not designed specifically for dating. There are plenty of groups that are.** This group will only accept advertising messages and solicitations for outside products or services with the approval of the group Organizer. Let's be friends! Thanks for considering joining our group! Finally, a huge thanks of gratitude for all the amazing people we have personally met and become friends with over the past 5+ years in this group. People come and go from our lives, but true friends remain in our hearts and minds forever. Thank You to the many true friends we have met!!!!!  Jeff, Jan, John, & Ed

Maybe you have been feeling isolated due to COVID, and you want to make more friends and maybe find a partner.

Whatever your reasons, if you are usually a quiet person, but you wish to improve your communication with people, then this group is for you. Within our group, you'll find a diverse range of individuals who understand the complexities of social interactions and the hurdles that can sometimes make it difficult to connect with others.

Christian Small Business Owners → Education and Networking

Kansas City, MO

Christian Small Business Owners → Education and Networking
Our events are now completely online. We are a group of Christian small business owners looking to have breakthroughs in the following: * Continuing education: Actionable insights for running a profitable small business in accordance with the will of God. * Contacts: You will meet other Christian Small Business Owners, so that you can establish collaborations and friendships * The joy of being on a faith-based business journey together with other Christian Small Business Owners Are you a follower of Jesus Christ and a solopreneur or small business owner? Then please join our group ASAP! See you soon, and be blessed! Norbert Bollow, Organizer P. S. for the benefit of those who like to have things spelled out in detail, here are some more specifics: Goals of the group: Learning from each other in informal discussion and from prepared presentations. Business networking / creating contacts, collaborations and friendships. Having a good time together. We are committed to creating a healthy community of support for all our members for their wellbeing and business. We will learn from experience what specific kinds of events to do in order to pursue these goals, but there will probably always be some educational content, some related discussion, and some social and business networking aspects. All events of the group are provided free of charge. There are no costs or fees charged to members. We all benefit most from our interactions when events are well-attended, without the hassle of fees getting in the way. Who should join the group: **Christian Small Business Owners, widely interpreted.** Besides well-established businesses, it’s also quite ok if your business is only a side hustle or even still a dream transitioning to the planning phase. All who consider themselves Christians, or even just curious about the Christian faith, are welcome. While we discuss the application of what the Bible says to today’s business realities, differences of theology and faith practices between different faith traditions are not what we’re concerned with in this group. The group and all events are intended to be a friendly and totally discrimination-free environment. If someone says something that you consider to be incompatible with the Christian faith, please treat them as an honored guest. The organizer of this group is himself a Christian solopreneur, self-employed as a business coach. The group is not affiliated with any religious or business organization beyond this group and a couple of similar groups run by the same organizer, each with a different geographical focus; online events can be shared across groups in order to bring a good number of like-minded people together.
