E22: Last night I had dinner with an engineer at the New York Times who also throws tech events around the city.

He's now in demand by every big tech company.

He shared how he did this and what he shares is actionable to anybody, not just engineers.

Then I share 3 books that can help you think more like him:

1. How to Win Friends and Influence People - Dale Carnegie
2. Influence - Robert Cialdini
3. Trust Me I'm Lying - Ryan Holiday
