Creating Your Future Through the People You Haven’t Even Met. . .Yet

You never know who is at the table across the room from you, standing in line behind you, or sitting in the seat next to you. It could be your biggest new client, your next employer, the gateway to a piece of information that changes your life, or the best friend you ever make.

Sometimes the most valuable encounters occur in the most unlikely, unexpected places. You can’t plan them, you can’t predict them. But you can create them. You just don’t know what’s possible; that is, you don’t know until you ask.

Get Talk to Strangers: How Everyday, Random Encounters Can Expand Your Business, Career, Income, and Life now with the O’Reilly learning platform.

O’Reilly members experience books, live events, courses curated by job role, and more from O’Reilly and nearly 200 top publishers.
