Book description
Small talk with anyone!
There's a difference between communicating effectively and making
small talk. Even if you have no fear of public speaking, you might
still stumble over simple conversation when chatting with your
superior, unexpectedly running into a friend, or breaking the ice with
someone you just met. The Small Talk Handbook lays down the
basics to engaging chitchat and teaches you how to enliven your
personal and professional communication - no matter where you are. It
offers the necessary tools to focus on verbal strengths, minimize
weaknesses, and leave the best impression.
So whether you're hosting a client dinner, attending a friend's
cocktail party, or participating in a fundraising event for your
children's school, you will always know just what to say with The
Small Talk Handbook.
