Tipping Point Partners is Seeking an Extraordinary Social Planner

Are you the consummate insider? Do your friends look to you as the go-to person for the right introductions, restaurants, events, or styles?

Does everyone rely on you? Are you obsessed with dates and advance planning?  Are you trusted for your honesty and attention to important details everyone else overlooked?

Do social puzzles energize you? Do you love threading the needle of competing schedules, complex agendas, and interesting personalities?

Is organizing the perfect event a great accomplishment? Are you the life of your social circle?

Are you a creator of intimacy and safety? Do you make shy people comfortable? Strangers feel welcome? Acquaintances brought closer? Do you get wallflowers to dance?
