Adapt your conversation

“The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn’t said.”

In ordinary conversation, adjustments are easily overlooked. Great conversationalists possess a heightened sense of awareness.

They can “read the room” or adjust their topics depending on the cues they pick up from others. For engaging conversations, look out for different body postures, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements and adapt accordingly.

Smiling, making eye contact, and leaning in towards the person you are talking to are a few things you can use to make a conversation memorable.
