In this episode of the BNI Southeast Tennessee podcast, hosts Michael Crosa and Elaine Zambos talk about the value of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) in business networking. They explain how learning new things helps with professional growth and can increase earnings. They discuss BNI’s “Power of One” idea, which is to complete one CEU each week. Elaine shares a story about a BNI member who does daily CEUs and sees great results. The hosts also mention that it’s important to not just learn but also use new knowledge, just like athletes review game footage to get better. They stress that continuous learning helps professionals earn more and be more impactful in their fields and relationships.
