Executive lounges, higher end hotel bars, and airport bars are my favorite place to meet like minded people and network. People tend to less territorial in these atmospheres and more open to conversation. So many people I’ve met this with and stay in contact to this day with.
- Bjartr 7y agoWhat's your approach here? And what do you do to pass the time?
- ct520 7y agoI'm curious by nature and very inquisitive. I think it comes off genuine. Turns out when you genuinely inquisitive people are happy to talk about themselves and what they do. It excites me to learn about people from different walks of life, many who are successful if they are type of here. I think they notice the excitement and this fuels the conversation.
- Bjartr 7y agoWhat's your go-to question for starting such a conversation, if you've got one?
- ct520 7y agoMan that’s hard. I don’t have a playbook. If I had to think of it. My natural go to (if I’m lucky) is disarming, relatable, an intelligent play on words that provides a compliment, piques their interest and shows I’m interested in what they are or what they are doing. Lot of times it’s just me paraphrasing something in real life that we just witnessed. Really depends how many ipas deep I am LOL. I think the biggest driver is I’m usually so interested in people and what they do from all walks of life. That passion shows.
