Class Description:
Proper conversation topics are perfect for deepening relationships and fostering meaningful discussions. Business meetings, dinner parties, or small gatherings can be a little awkward, especially if you don’t know everyone in the room. It is critical that everyone should be geared up with mindful and respectful starters to break the ice.

In this OnLive session, we will share how small talk is an opportunity to make a quick connection with someone and get to know them in order to open the door to a deeper and more meaningful conversation. A seemingly unimportant chat with that person can help you understand their communication style and give you some insight into their personality. Join us to uncover tested and proven secrets about this well-used style.
