Questions To Question

Updated: Nov 21, 2022

To join the Myth vs Reality Luxury Circle you are invited to submit your application here, but the requirements don't stop just there - as a think-tank circle, those attending events and discussions are asked to submit questions.


What then happens to those questions, is to be seen during the event (if everything would be accessible then there wouldn't be any exclusivity) but it goes without saying, you won't be sat for two hours straight listening to me going "me, myself and I" that's for sure.


And that is the difference with this Myth vs Reality Luxury Circle - it's about a common ground, discussions, exchanging and doing so in a way that defies the norms that we have been so used to when it comes to events and round tables.


As Viktoria so nicely put it to me as we were discussing her involvement with the "product" for the experiential side of the inaugural event, "close your eyes and open your mind" is the teaser takeaway.



In order to get your tastebuds (or rather ear buds as the answers will be provided in an audio podcast style file) excited for if/when you do become a member of the circle, here's a teaser of some of the questions that came in from the first round of fellow think-tankers.


To hear the discussions and my personal input, you will just have to submit your application to become a member here BUT am keen to hear your own opinions on the questions below. So feel free to join the polls below!
