For the career person who’s constantly on the go, dating can be a tedious task that’s difficult to sustain. It eats up plenty of time and energy that you would prefer dedicating to other things, such as sealing that deal, or talking to your clients. But dating doesn’t have to be a chore, and it doesn’t have to be a bore. Meeting like-minded professionals isn’t impossible. In fact, it’s more common than you think.
Executive dating may be a bit old-fashioned and not be so mainstream, but there’s definitely a higher success rate in your matches. Not yet convinced? Here’s why executive dating can lead to your perfect match:
You’re peers
If you’re dating someone from the same work environment, then you know well enough that you’re peers who are on the same level of commitment. There’s much to tell about a person based on their work ethic anyway. You may not know this person that well yet outside work, but after a cup of coffee or agreeing on a few drinks outside the office, you’ll find that there’s more to the person than meets the eye.
You’re in the same or similar environment
Similar experiences mold people closer to each other, and a similar environment is a good conversation starter to fill in an awkward silence over dinner. Executive dating allows you to converse with people whom you know will understand you at your level, and not someone who will completely take you for granted, or just gloss over what you just said.
You’re both mature individuals
While it’s not so much about age, maturity is all about how a person can connect with you on the level you want to be understood. A similar professional may be the person you’re looking for, instead of a mismatched stranger. Without needing to blindly fumble in the dark, you’ll find your match through an executive dating venue.
