Assuming everyone knows each other and is ready to work, I would introduce myself and my idea: A dating social network that uses genetics data as one of the criteria for matching people.

I will select the top managers in the group, assign each a responsibility, and then have them go into the crowd and build out their team to help accomplish that. I would have the best pitchmen go out and try to raise money from investors.

Everyone goes to work while I sit back in my chair and tent my fingers.

Are you actually working on that? Sounds cool.
Sounds like eugenics
Setting aside the fact that more diverse genes generally result in healthier offspring...
Not necessarily. It could just take a lot of data on compatibility and see if it could correlate it to genetics. Whether or not there is any correlation would be the question though.
Nothing wrong with letting people find the most optimal mate with which to produce offspring.
