conversation with anyone, anywhere. While it may not make you fall in love
with small talk, it will teach how to do it better. Whether it's at a
networking event, with co-workers around the water cooler, or on that
why-does-this-

change your life (or at least your afternoon).
Attendees will learn:

2 Strategies for Talking with Anyone
The 20-minute presentation will be followed by interactive exercises that
allow you to practice the small talk strategies and get to know the people
around you.
