The tone here feels a little sanctimonious, like: Chocolate bon bons for everyone because "yay, me!" Sometimes I think it's useful for people who have enough affluence to surround themselves exclusively with positive people to hear a little constructive criticism. I've met tons of bosses who have spent so much time being autocratic bosses, that they suffer from "emperor's new clothes" syndrome, because only yes-men survive in their social circle. An exchange of 20 minutes per 5 minutes doesn't feel exceptionally useful, considering how much time people spend in bars and cafes. The term "office hours" rings of high priests in ivory towers. An invitation opened to lesser beings that informs them of their own lowly status will probably fetch obsequious RSVP's, but maybe that's the idea.
