Michael: Hi, I don’t think we’ve met yet. I’m Michael.
Sophie: Nice to meet you, Michael. I’m Sophie. Are you enjoying the event so far?
Michael: Yeah, it’s been great. Lots of interesting conversations. What field are you in?
Sophie: I work in project management, mostly in the tech sector. I’m hoping to move into a senior role soon.
Michael: That’s impressive. I’m currently in marketing, but I’m aiming to transition into a strategy-focused position.
Sophie: That makes sense. Have you thought about getting any certifications to support that move?
Michael: I have, actually. I’m looking into a digital strategy course this year.
Sophie: That could really help. Networking like this is useful too—sometimes the right conversation opens new doors.
Michael: Absolutely. It’s encouraging to hear how others are planning their next steps.
Sophie: Same here. It reminds me to stay focused on long-term goals, not just the current job.
Michael: Well, I’m glad we talked. Maybe we can stay in touch on LinkedIn?
Sophie: I’d like that. Let’s connect and see where things lead.
