Senior person at a client asked me to get coffee with him. This would usually be a partner level thing but he’s reached out to me specifically and not the partners. I’m a senior associate. Do I tell the partners? I’m inclined to give them a heads up. It seems to be for networking/ professional purposes since his EA is going to coordinate. Thinking I will forward to the partners and just note that client has asked for a coffee, happy to keep the relationship alive, lmk if you want to join or if there are any points I should hit. Thoughts?
ETA he’s way above my level, like GC level so client relationship would be managed by partner. Not a peer to peer coffee.
