If you want to accelerate your career and social life, be happier and more fulfilled, create a greater impact, and develop meaningful relationships with people who can impact the world, prepare for an enlightening talk that will inspire you to take action and give you the knowledge to discover what your true potential holds.

Jon Levy’s study of the science of networking began with a transformational insight: The fundamental element that defines the quality of your life is the people you surround yourself with and the conversations you have with them. If you want an extraordinary life, simply surround yourself with the most exceptional people in the world. But how does someone access these people? The model Levy developed, combined with his research and lessons learned, will change the way you see yourself, your value, and the way you engage with those around you.

Building upon The Influencers Model for Engagement, Levy designed a methodology to connect with the most important and influential people in our culture. To test and prove this model, he founded The Influencers and The Influencers Dinner, a private community and dining experience. Twice a month, twelve world-renowned thought leaders and tastemakers across all industries prepare dinner together but are not allowed to discuss their work or even give their last name. Once seated, guests take turns guessing what their fellow diners do professionally, only to discover they are sitting with celebrities, Olympians, executives of major companies, Nobel Laureates — even royalty.

In just a few short years, Levy went from being unheard of to running the most exclusive private community of influencers, thought leaders, and taste makers in the world. After more than 60 dinners and over 600 guests, The Influencers has received considerable media coverage, including stories on the cover of The New York Times, Style Section, Forbes, and Business Insider, among others. It has also garnered Levy respect as one of the greatest “super connectors” and networkers in our culture. He was named by Fast Company, as one of fifteen people redefining networking, and been the subject of countless articles in The New York Times, Forbes, Business Insider, and Cranes, to name a few.
