Instructions
Step 1
Keep yourself at ease and free. Just do not confuse this with swagger and familiarity. It's one thing when a person smiles openly and readily supports the topic of conversation, and another thing is if he jokes inappropriately at others, behaves rudely and does not consider it necessary to keep his negative thoughts and emotions to himself. To successfully conduct conversations with the audience, you need to have a broad outlook and a well-delivered speech. Self-education and reading quality literature will help you with this.
Step 2
Be kind. You should not discuss someone behind his back, spread gossip, speak unflatteringly about other people, criticize everyone and everything. Try to radiate positivity. Then it will be pleasant to communicate with you. Of course, you shouldn't tell someone else's secrets. If a person has revealed himself to you, he trusts you. Don't be fooled by his kindness to you.
Step 3
Learn to listen to other people. Do not interrupt the interlocutor, do not rush to finish the sentence for him. When you, as a prompter, tell a person what to say, it can give the impression that you doubt their mental abilities or put yours much higher. Avoid sensitive topics such as religion, health, financial situation. By asking inappropriate questions, you can embarrass the person.
Step 4
Maintain your distance when talking to the person. Each has its own limit of intimate space, which depends on personal characteristics and population density in the territory where a particular person was born and raised. Therefore, it happens that you are comfortable standing very close to the interlocutor, but for some reason he is nervous. Take a step back, do not embarrass the person. In addition, you should not touch others during a conversation, fiddle with buttons and ruffle sleeves.
Step 5
Follow the basic rules of courtesy. Call unfamiliar people by "you", by name and patronymic. Men should let women go ahead. But they need to enter the elevator first. The person who is closer to the exit leaves the elevator first, regardless of gender and age.
Step 6
Don't be intrusive. Know when the conversation has run its course and you need to leave. To do this, you should look closely at those around you, watch their gestures and facial expressions, in order to feel in time that your society has become undesirable. If you become uninterested with your interlocutors, leave under a plausible pretext, but do not do it with a bored expression on your face.
