The Engaging Brand podcastcovering social marketing, business ideas and brand marketing tipshas a new episode.

Anna Farmeryspeaks with Alan Gregermanabout The Necessity of Strangers.
They discuss
  • How talking to strangers may be the missing part of our own personal development.
  • The balance between feeling comfortable enough to share and yet the need to speak to strangers.
  • How the mechanism of the world wide web allows us to connect but have we learned to drive the value from those social networks?
  • Is our own potential judged on our 5 closest friends (From Word of Mouse podcast) or our 5 closest strangers?
  • It is not who you know...but who you could know....But how do you know who you should know!
  • How our prejudice to speakers is often implicit - and how we can learn to be more open in our management style
  • How retreating to an off site session makes you more insular - how you can be more innovative from going to strange places rather than a darkened room.
  • How will you make new friends if you DON'T talk to strangers.
  • How connecting with our own 'inner stranger' can help our personal development.
