“ I'll answer the door. As you're facing the building, the steps from the sidewalk down to my door are to the right of the main steps. Mine is the top buzzer. ”

This will be my first time facilitating this type of meeting, so I thought it would be good to run it like a networking event. We will start with introductions, which can include any particular successes and difficulties in our businesses, as well as requests for particular resources.

After introductions, I will start a discussion on a topic I hope will be of interest to all of you: "Renaissance in Recession." Changing business climates require new strategies, and changing gears in a recession is especially tricky. I'm a practicing Taoist, so I may bring out some examples from the classic "Art of War" by Sun Tzu, which was popular in the 80s as a business management tool.

It will depend on the number of participants, but I would expect it to last 60-90 minutes. I will have snacks and drinks available.
