In other words, having exceptional conversational skills or social skills! How many people have you met who express real interest in you and who do this by giving you their full attention?
Likely not many. For few people know how to listen in a way that empowers the speaker, speak in a way that empowers the listener and ask the right questions for the particular context.
Is being a competent conversationalist an essential notion for you?
What we offer is for you if … . you ask yourself why is it important to have superior communication skills? And what is lost when people lack confidence in how they relate to colleagues and associates? . you recognise that expanding your ability to connect well with others is the most the most important thing that you can do for yourself, both professionally and personally. . you do not assume that since you can talk you can also communicate well. . conversational skills are not ‘givens’ – they can be learned and practiced to good effect. Most people seem to be unaware that conversation skills are ‘learnable.’ . you know intuitively – and from your yearning for deeper communication in everyday life - that giving full attention to others does not come naturally. For we all tend to develop patterns of communicating which to some extent serve us well but also unknowingly limit our experience. These limitations are reflected not only in our constructions of who we imagine ourselves and others to be, but in the patterning of beliefs implicit in our choices and possibilities for what we can and cannot do, to whom we can and cannot relate, and how much passion and desire we do or do not feel. We do this through offering mainly 'in house' courses and workshops which are conducted in Café style settings. This means that learning about these things that matter happens through friendly interaction among participants. And when there is an interval between sessions there is opportunity to practice what has been noticed. Becoming a competent conversationalist takes a lot of practice! Photo taken at a workshop on “Exceptional people skills and how to develop them” presented by Alan Stewart at an XL Results Foundation ‘Momentum’ in Hong Kong in January 2007. Recently Alan was invited to run a workshop on conversational skills for a group of young (aged around 18) aspiring theatre performers. This was the initiative of a young woman who had founded a club through which to provide resources for such people. Present were young people and several teachers who Alan had invited. Here are comments on the event by the person who had set it up and also a young man and an 'older' man, ie older than 20!
