Hi, I'm Stefan Thomas. I'm proud to be the Network Director of 4Networking, which means that I drive the 5000 or so breakfast, lunch and evening networking meetings we host across England, Scotland and Wales each year.

I lead a network of Regional Leaders, Area Leaders, Group Leaders, Marketing Assistants and Operations assistants across the UK each of whom sees the benefit of being part of the team.

I am currently writing Business Networking For Dummies - and also proud that the good people of Wiley have chosen me as one of their expert authors. The book will be published in April 2014.

Described as an engaging and passionate speaker, I speak at events on business networking and joining up your online and real life networking.

I am continually pretending I'm neither too old nor too fat to rock and roll and whenever I can will be found in a mosh pit at a punk gig somewhere - particular favourites are The Damned and Green Day.

I'm flattered you've read this far, if you want to know more about me, keep in touch on here or Facebook or Twitter.
