What's in Your Networking Wallet?

Musha always wants to know where I am going, where I have been, and did I bring him any treats from my travels?

This week I had the pleasure of telling him that I had a blast while attending (co-hosting) our newest Gotham group - Lower Manhattan Dinner Group.  What a night that was.  

He still insisted to know what HE got out of it.  At which point, I had to explain to him that true valuable networking (what he calls barkworking) is not what you get out of it, but what you bring to the table (or in his case the floor).    What goes around comes around.  He said...oh, kinda like a ball????  As it was dawning on sweet Musha the value of networking, I had to once again dash his hopes when he said..."OK mom, when is our next meeting?"  "Unfortunately Musha, dogs are not allowed in restaurants."

Musha took it in stride and said, "OK mom, you will tell me all about it when you come home after the next meeting.   

 

I replied, "Absolutely sweet boy, you will hear all about our next meeting on the night of June 7th!"     (shameless plug here - Contact myself  cdf@cdfarra.com or Ray Walcott at rayon.walcott@capitalone.com

We know what’s in our networking pocket! Let Crysti and I know what’s in yours on June 7th.

Am away 6/7 but look forward to attending, participating, and giving.

Outstanding first dinner meeting, bravissimo!

You got that right about bringing it to the table. I wish I could be around on June 7th, but my trip to NY in June will be centered around the Gotham Met's Yanks game on June 14th. Hope to see everyone there.

Have Musha text JuniperBerry - they can talk about us while we are in the Gotham Networking Sandbox on June 7th! Count me in!

Hmmm. My nephew recently brought his mini poodle Rocky to brunch. I was dismayed. He said since Covid, restaurants permit pets. So maybe Mushy and JuniperBerry can join the June 7th sandbox conclave. Hoping to see you there. ARRRFFF! P.S.: Of course, caution suggests that you call the restaurant first.
