Episode 293: Conversations
Manage episode 184784168 series 1346097
Is society losing its grip on good, deep, solid conversations? Yes, we are more connected on a macro level through technology and social media, but have we lost some of our face-to-face communication skills because of our digitally evolving world?
In this episode, we talk conversations. We discuss the importance of seeking to understand rather than seeking to be heard when conversing with one another, and Phil shares three questions he typically asks during a conversation with a new acquaintance. He finds that ironically, to become a better conversationalist, you must speak less and listen more – actively learning from what your conversational partner has to share.
