To enhance conversational skills, prioritize listening over speaking. Engage in active listening by focusing entirely on the speaker, silencing internal dialogue, and resisting the urge to plan responses. Demonstrate interest in others by asking open-ended questions, which promote deeper discussions. Acknowledge and validate the speaker's input with nonverbal cues like nodding and maintaining eye contact, along with verbal affirmations. Shift the mindset from being interesting to being interested, fostering a more meaningful connection and allowing others to express themselves fully.
