Now, on to tonight's featured leader. Nick Gray is an entrepreneur, author, and founder of Museum Hack. He wrote the two-hour cocktail party about building real relationships. During our conversation, Nick shares why name tags and icebreakers are not cheesy but really useful, how to host events where leaders actually connect, the viral Tokyo story that started with a tweet and why every leader should master storytelling.

You also should have your own personal website. Plus, Nick shares some practical career advice on why being a great MC makes you a stronger leader everywhere else. This one went all over the place. I think you're gonna like it, ladies and gentlemen. Please enjoy my conversation with Nick Gray.
