From the course: Small Talk for Non-Native English Speakers

Small talk, big impact

- In business, small talk can have a big impact. The light and seemingly unimportant conversations you have with colleagues and fellow participants at professional events can open the doors to friendship, better working relations, and even new job opportunities. So knowing how to make effective small talk is a valuable skill. In this course, I'll teach you about making small talk from start to finish, from tips on breaking the ice to advice on how to keep the conversation engaging, and how to bring it to a close. I'll draw on my years of experience teaching English and making lots of small talk of my own to teach you what to say and what not to. My name is Liesje Sandler, and I am an English coach at Speexx. Join me on this LinkedIn Learning course and let's talk.
