Hold a networking event where there are 4 chairs like this that are sold for $10,000 each!
Yesterday I had the opportunity to work with one of the current Ivey MBA classes on personal branding , time just flew by as we talked about personal brands and how they might start to look at the way they are communicating and portraying their brands differently. I feel that we shifted, I was certainly energized by the students interest and enthusiasm for the subject and certainly the feedback was positive – many liked the fact that the presentation included references to pop culture and related to them much more.
It was then enhanced when we got to spend a few hours in the evening at Ultra Supper Club on Queen Street in Toronto where they had just taken delivery of the Verve Cliquot loveseats designed by Karim Rashid. The full story on the chairs can be read in this Globe & Mail article.
A fun conversation piece, an ice breaker even – it just went to show that sometimes you do not have to worry aobut what you are initially going to say when you have a fibreglass chair in the room!
