Getting Access to Important People

Camile: That is a really good idea. 

Nathan: Thanks, but there’s no way I can get past all of the gatekeepers in this company to get access to the president. He’s the only one who can green-light a project like this. 

Camile: Can’t you present it to your boss first? 

Nathan: If I bring the idea to my immediate1 supervisor2, she’ll either take it over or nix it. 

Camile: What you need to do is to get the ear of one of his advisors3 and do an end-run around the other managers. 

Nathan: I’m not sure how I can do that. I don’t know any of the advisors in the president’s inner circle. We don’t exactly travel in the same circles, you know. 

Camile: How’s your jump shot? 

Nathan: Why do you ask? 

Camile: My cousin works at the same gym where that the company president goes to exercise. Sometimes he likes to play a game of pick- up basketball, often one-on-one. If you got a call from my cousin when he’s there, you might be able to be get there quickly and be in the right place at the right time. 

Nathan: You mean talk business on the courts? 

Camile: Sure, isn’t that how real deals get made? 

Nathan: You might have an idea there. 

Camile: Yes, but one piece of advice: Let him win!
