I was recently interviewed for an article on networking in Hartford Courant.
I talked about my approach of ‘networking without networking‘ and explained how my weekly open house parties in Mumbai have helped me meet some really interesting people.
These parties would have about 15 to 20 people including online friends, friends of friends and total strangers. I would put on some music on my iPod, mix some drinks, and split the evening between the kitchen and the living room. After these parties, I was always amazed at two things: how a shared meal can put people at ease and how my online and offline lives seemed to have merged.
