What do you do when you realize you’re about to have a business meeting with a client, and at the reception desk you hear the person next to you is going to meet the same person at the same time? 😃
You network. 😃
I said ”Excuse me, I get the impression we’re about to meet the same person at the same time”.
We introduce ourselves to one another and assume there must be some kind of a misunderstanding.
While waiting for the meeting to begin, the Swedish guy and I have a conversation and realize we’re not competitors to each other. We exchange contact details and agree on a meeting about potentially working together at some point.
This happened yesterday.
I’ve seen a lot of interesting situations in meetings, but this was a first.
Sometimes buyers like to put people in awkward situations, but not that buyer I was about to meet, he is not that kind of a guy. Yesterday was about a misunderstanding.
What’s the strangest thing you’ve encountered in a meeting? 💥
