It sounds simple but having a meaningful and effective conversation can be a bit of a minefield. Ego, emotions, listening skills, and what we say (or don’t say) all play a part in how we’re perceived, both at work and at home.
By improving your conversational skills you can improve your impact. Great conversational skills strengthens relationships, heightens engagement, boosts team performance, builds a culture rich in feedback and inclusivity, and sparks transformative change.
The good news is that conversations are based on a distinct set of skills and attitudes that can be learned. The 5 SuperSkills of Great Conversation are the core skills that underpin all conversations we have, at work and at home.
The following questionnaire allows you to assess your own competence against each of the 5 Conversational SuperSkills as a starting point for making improvements.
