Episode description

Imagine that you'd get the opportunity to join an intimate dinner party.  A dinner where you're accompanied by some of the brightest people in our field. And where you'd get the chance to explore a thought-provoking topic.

Would you enjoy the evening?

That question was going through my mind when I was thinking about how the Circle community should feel. Now, almost two years after the first "dinner party" at the Circle, it's time to take score. So I sat down with two members of the Circle for a fun and open-hearted conversation.

In this episode, you'll hear:

  • How spontaneous conversations help you to become a better professional.
  • What the value is of exploring the unknown-unknown together.
  • Why Slack channels don't work, and how this community is different.
  • What the future has in store for the Circle.

I hope that this episode will inspire you to join, grow or maybe even start your own professional community. Because we all should eat more often together :)
