This past evening had to stay late at work and was told a group would stay on my floor for 2 hours. Given I work on one of the top floors of 1 World Trade Center, I thought it would be another group of brokers snacking on finger food brought in to sell space by property manager or another group of med students graduating and snacking again on finger food and joy of billing for life health insurance companies. It was not, it was just a group of Columbia Business School Graduates, about 25, coming for again finger food and supposedly a networking event. Thought again it was as meaningless as the gorup of real estate brokers coming with rolex watches and pumping prices per square foot. It would be a noise of mindlessness. Suddenly that room became all quiet and a moderator took leadership of the group, First, she said she would introduce herself at the end and started to talk about the importance of networking properly in life defining the why how and when , how it impacts careers centered on project blocks and had suddenly in a second phase all members network in parity and discover themselves and learn about themselves. She was using spectacular tools and will not reveal. It was such an enriching collaborative symphony At the end she introduced herself and all clapped and I also did clap. It was a spectacular workshop and I would recommend it to anybody unless they wish to become a monk at ST Martin du Canigou
