What are the worst things you’ve ever said in a first-time conversation? From the wrong way to compliment someone to asking people about their salaries, how much they pay for their homes, and talking about your company and colleagues, we all say things that may be inappropriate in a first-time conversation. In some situations, there is a more tactful way to say something – and this video presents your alternatives. In other situations, it’s best not to say anything at all – and I’ll tell you just when to let it go. I’ll teach you how to say things better, so that you don’t hurt anyone’s feelings. With this video, my aim is to help you realize the worst things to say so that when you ARE talking to someone for the first time, you know exactly how to approach the conversation. This makes you feel confident and relaxed. And that’s what we’re all about – Confident Conversations. Enjoy the video!
