Real connection beats digital shortcuts every time. That's the powerful message from Barry Kleiman, a 75-year-old former playground kid who spent 50 years helping executives build authentic relationships in business.

In this revealing conversation, Barry breaks down how the fundamental principles we learned on the playground are becoming secret weapons in a world obsessed with automation and AI.

Drawing from decades of experience in executive search and basketball coaching, Barry shares:

  • Why "networking" is toxic but "connecting" is transformational
  • The 4 essential questions that create real relationships and results
  • How playground principles translate into marketing success
  • Why trust can't be automated or faked
  • Simple ways to stand out by being more human

Barry's framework shows how going back to basics - the skills we mastered as kids before adults taught us to be fake - provides a competitive advantage that AI can't replicate.
