I'd dine with Tim Brown, founder of All Birds (sneakers made from New Zealand merino wool and eucalyptus fibers), Anne Patchett (award-winning author and owner of indpendent bookstore Parnassus Books in Tennessee, USA) and marketing guru and entrepreneur Seth Godin. Imagine the conversation flowing between a Kiwi who creates high-quality shoes made from sustainable materials, a writer determined to thrive as a businessperson in a particularly challenging industry (books!) and an internationally recognized digital-marketing expert. Each one is creative, nimble and incredibly dedicated -- and each seems to have a good sense of humor, too. Could be a fascinating evening. I love to hear who's on *your* invite list!
