Connecting Indian & Global Real Estate Leaders

TIPS
MEDIA PRESENCE
While journalists may sometimes take notes during discussions, they only ever do so after signing a “Chatham House” confidentiality agreement under which they commit not to quote for attribution to a person or to a company, except with specific consent from the respective parties. In addition, students or other reporters may summarize most of the discussions and take notes that are subsequently distributed to all participants.
HERE ARE A FEW TIPS THAT MAY BE HELPFUL IN GETTING THE MOST OUT OF THE GRI...
GRI discussions are not panels. They are like after-dinner conversations in one’s own living room with good friends, under the guidance of a moderating Chair.
Everyone participates equally, not just the Discussion Chair & Co-Chairs. The job of the moderating Chair is to make everybody talk and engage. Discussion Co-Chairs sit scattered about the room and participate no more and no less than anyone else in the room.
If connecting with new partners is useful, we encourage you to engage as vocally and actively as you might enjoy. This will enable others to get to know you and vice versa.
The Moderating Chair will address questions directly to participants by name or by gesturing towards them, not just to anyone in the room at-large, as that is usually greeted with pregnant silence. Even so, you are encouraged to comment, question, dissent or otherwise interject.
As no one will prompt you, please join the discussion room of your choice in good time. Rooms tend to fill up after a discussion starts so you need not be concerned by a near empty room. This will quickly change.
Some participants speak so softly as to be unheard by most. Speak up and remind others to do so if you can’t hear them.
Avoid monopolizing conversation, self-promotion or commercial pitches, as the Moderating Chair has been urged to cut them off.
The GRI format was designed to enable senior industry leaders to share, learn and make friends in as natural, spontaneous and collegial a setting as possible. We welcome your suggestions as to how we can do better.
WELCOME
We are delighted to welcome you to the 11th India GRI, the flagship meeting for GRI Club India.
As you may already know, GRI meetings are different. The discussion groups are participatory affairs, not polite conversations. We encourage you to question, interrupt, disagree and generally let the world know what you think. Our aim is simply to remove the barriers that can often stop senior executives networking effectively.
To GRI newcomers, welcome to an exclusive real estate club of like-minded peers. To old friends, welcome back.
We wish you a great India GRI.
