As I sit here and keep hearing celebrations taking place for Cinco de Mayo it reminds me how holidays can make great story lead ins for ice breaking. Whether you find yourself at a cocktail party, networking event or just needing to make small talk little known holidays can be just the ticket. There are several sites and even books that list days of celebrations and some stories behind them. Think about ways that you can share this information with people you are just meeting or are looking to get to know better. If you have a personal story tied to the day even better. Image the stories Caesar tells (where ever he happens to be) every March 15th!
So, do you celebrate Cinco de Mayo? Are you wondering why we Americans make such a big deal about the Mexican Independence day? There is a story there, find it or create your own version and share it with others.
Adios.
