The Art of Small Talk

It will help you to connect with people around you.

Small talk is a simple conversation.

The topic isn't important.

When you make small talk, you don't give many details

You might ask questions like:

How's life?
What have you been up to recently?
What's new with you?

But, you don't expect a detailed answer

SMALL TALK

Is a way to show friendliness and interest.

If you meet a new colleague or you start a new class and you want to make friends, making a small talk sends a social signal

It says:

We are in the same social level, so we can be friendly wit each other.

Plus, small talk is a way to avoid silence in a conversation, which makes many people uncomfortable.

Be an Ice-breaker (introduce).
Listen more than you talk.
