14. How to Have Good Conversation |TEDx Talk by Celeste Headlee

No Small Talk- Conversation Starters for Introverts

One of the most googled questions is "How to have a good conversation". If you're like us, you enjoy great conversations where you walk away feeling engaged and inspired, like you've made a real deep connection with the person you're talking to. But if you're like us, you also sometimes struggle with having those awesome conversations.

In today's episode, we share 10 tips from Celeste Headlee on how to have a good conversation.

Celeste has worked in public radio since 1999, as a reporter, host, and correspondent and approaches regular conversations the same way she would interviews- listening and believing that everyone has something interesting and amazing about them.

Here's what to expect:

• How to be more interested
  
• Why you should listen more than talk
  
• How to have conversations with people you like, people you don't like, and people you fundamentally disagree with
