Pioneers TV: How to start a conversation

The key to being a self sufficient networker is the ability to start a conversation with someone you’ve never met before, without an introduction.

Pioneers TV presenter Reuben Christian gives us a lesson in what to do, and what not to do, when it comes to starting conversations.
