Episode notes
Better Small Talk
- Avoid asking generic questions like "How's it going?"
- Instead, ask specific questions to spark conversation, such as "What did you have for breakfast?"
Elicit Specifics
- Instead of asking "What do you like to do?", ask about specific scenarios.
- Try "What's an ideal Friday night for you?" to get more genuine answers.
Estimating Timelines
- Instead of asking for deadlines directly, ask "When would you be surprised if we didn't have this done?"
- This encourages more realistic estimations.
