Larry Chiang scandalously shows granular tid-bits in how to start as an entrepreneur. He edits the Bloomberg BusinessWeek channel “What They Don’t Teach You at Business School”. After Chiang’s Harvard Law keynote, Harvard Business wrote: “What They Don’t Teach You at Stanford Business School“ (its the same title as his NY Times bestseller). If you read his scandalously awesome “What a Supermodel Can Teach a Stanford MBA” and “How to Get Man-Charm”, you will like his latest post:
Don’t Work me at a Coffee, Woo Me at a Party

by Larry Chiang
Coffees are tough.
I like meeting at a Party.
I learned this technique from Bill Hecht. Yeah, he reps and lobbies for alcohol, tobacco and Native American gaming (Indian Reservation gaming)
Bill Hecht would host a mini party. I am not talking a standing cocktail party. He sits at a big round table at Capital Hill Club. Mr Hecht asks you at most one or two questions. When other people enter the table, he introduces you and then listens to the question that they ask of you.
To take a page out of Bill Hecht’s playbook, I am not doing coffees. I am doing a party. So invite me to the cocktail party and I will talk with you there
