Tips for Better Conversations

To enhance conversations and build better connections, it is essential to focus on asking more questions than answering. Research shows that people enjoy talking about themselves, and asking engaging questions helps trigger inspiring discussions. By maintaining the 2:1 question ratio, where you ask two questions for every one they ask, conversations become more dynamic and interactive. This approach fosters a dialogue style that resembles a scenic walk, with twists and turns, creating an engaging and enriching conversational experience.
