"The NetworKing Academy was a true eye opener. It not only helped me to understand networking better, but also to feel more comfortable with it. Ruf widens your world through his own experience and that of very interesting guest speakers."

"The networking academy has helped me a lot to pinpoint effective ways to enhance and maintain my professional network."

"I was honored to be part of The NetworKing Academy to help participants enhance their personal skills while adding to their knowledge of networking, so they can feel more confident and make a longer lasting impact."

The training of Charles Ruffolo has given me a lot of new insights and helped me to think about our networking efforts in a completely different way. The Networking Academy has also given me a great journey in which I got to know myself even better. I have received many new insights to build a stronger connection and to communicate more effectively. The alternation between the theory and the practical exercises provide a good basis for familiarizing yourself with the methodologies.

A few years ago I participated in The NetworKing Academy. During the course I learned that getting to know myself and stepping out of my comfort zone was the basis for successful networking. After the course I decided to take on a new challenge and started studying again. During the training I benefited greatly from the networking skills I had developed during the Academy. By using these skills I was visible within the organization where I did an internship and was even offered a job. Now I notice that I can achieve a lot as a professional by investing in my network. That way I can better help clients and refer them to colleagues; this also works the other way around. I also create opportunities by being visible and growing opportunities for myself. In this way The NetworKing Academy contributes in the long term to my success and indirectly to that of others!

"Networking is so much more ..." Ruf's winged saying “it's not who you know that counts, it's who knows you” is carefully worked out at The Networking Academy. With the help of the network wiser, 8 sub-areas are treated and deepened, so that you get to know yourself and your strengths better and can be placed on the market more effectively. A valuable course that has brought me many new insights and behaviors that benefit me every day.

"I attended The NetworKing Academy and I found the course instructive and gave me exactly the tools to network "a special study". Now that I have my own organization, independent travel advisor Josette Franken ReisAdvies affiliated with Personal Touch Travel, I am able to effectively put what I have learned into practice. I can also still contact Charles Ruffolo if I choose to. A pure networker. I am very happy that I was able to participate in the training and learned a lot from it.

"I thought I knew about networking until I joined The NetworKing Academy. From high-level to the smallest detail was explained and real life examples with very interesting speakers from different levels, helped me understand networking even better. The Ruff transmites his energy and makes you feel the King of your Network. His experience and knowledge is passed on and he makes sure that you are fired up and energized."

"Charles Ruffolo is an inspiring speaker about networking. Creating always a setting where his network can shine"

"Following The NetworKing Academy was an eyeopener for me on what networking is about. The phrase it is not who you know but who knows you" is still firmly in my mind. Besides this the interactions with the 'teachers', the events and the way you interact with your academy group has teached me the value of getting out of your comfort zone. Realising that you can be of added value in someone else's network was honestly something I never thought about before. All in all this experience was one I will benefit from for the rest of my life. Thank you Charles!"

"I enjoyed attending The Network Academy with great pleasure. Charles is an appreciative enthusiastic host with interesting guests! What I will never forget is what he said to me at a Network dinner: "Never think you don't bring value to the table, because you do bring value!" For me personally an important achievement, because I often do not value myself enough. Thank you Ruf for everything you've brought."
