1
Full disclosure, one thing I've never been naturally good at as a recovering awkward person is social skills.
2
Social skills, the tools we use to communicate, relate, and build relationships.
3
Now what's interesting is, as a researcher, as someone who's obsessed with science, I always wanted to know, are there different types of social skills?
4
So in this video, I look at the 14 different types of social skills, And I think everyone has a top two or three
5
that they're really good at and a bottom two or three
6
that they've always wanted to work on or they have to cover up and hide.
7
So in this video, I'm going to go through all 14 of those social skills.
8
You're going to rate and rank yourself on those social skills, and we're going to find our top three and our bottom three.
9
Let's get started.
10
The first social skill is linchpin.
11
If you were a linchpin, you would say yes to the following statements.
12
I am the glue that holds my social group together.
13
As a team member, I'm involved in lots of projects and bringing ideas and people together.
14
I am the only person who talks to everyone in my family and keeps people in the know.
15
So if you said yes to all three of these statements or two out of three of these statements, you are probably a linchpin.
16
So linchpin is a specific kind of social skill.
17
You are a gatherer.
18
You gather ideas and people.
19
You bring people together.
20
You're like a social glue.
21
What's really great about you is typically you're a bridge.
22
So you keep groups, companies, teams, families feeling like their relationships are strong and glue is a really,
23
really great social skill to have.
24
Social skill number two, conversationalist.
25
Conversationalists would say yes to the following statements.
26
You have been told you are a great conversationalist.
27
You are good at both leading and facilitating deep discussions.
28
You speak articulately and can easily express yourself.
29
So you know if you have the gift of gab, Conversationalists just effer- this is not my skill clearly.
30
They effer- little- oh they effer- sorry they effer- little-
31
okay conversationalists effer- lit- I don't know why I can't say that.
32
Okay this is not my social skill.
33
Okay Conversationalists easily make conversation with anyone.
34
They are really good at small talk.
35
They can chat with their boss.
36
They can chat with the guy behind the counter.
37
They are really, really good at easily making conversation.
38
And typically, you get in long, long overnight discussions.
39
You hop on a phone call that ends up being two hours of deep talk where people share their deepest, darkest secrets.
40
Being a great conversationalist is actually a specific social skill.
41
It's different than a linchpin.
42
It's different than the other things we're going to learn.
43
It means you have the gift of gap and you should set yourself up to be a great conversationalist, whether that's a listener or a facilitator of deep discussion.
44
Social skill number three, comedian.
45
Comedians would say yes to the following statements.
46
I am funny.
47
I love to make people laugh.
48
I can always see the bright side of any situation.
49
You have probably met a comedian and you remember them for being hysterically funny.
50
The interesting thing is, as a social skill, being funny holds its own.
51
You might be really funny but not be great at conversation.
52
You might be really funny but not be social glue or a linchpin.
53
You might be really funny, but not be good at decoding body language.
54
Being funny is a very specific social skill.
55
It's great for presenting, meetings, hosts.
56
You're also good at making people feel at ease.
57
The nice thing is, is you can actually work on how to be funny.
58
We have a whole guide on our website.
59
With all these social skills, you can work on them.
60
But I love the how to be funny one because it's one that people don't often think of.
61
Social skill number four.
62
Speaker.
63
Speakers would say yes to the following statements.
64
I can captivate an audience.
65
I love being on stage or leading a meeting, even on video.
66
I love writing speeches, giving toasts, and giving presentations.
67
If you said yes to all these three, you are a speaker.
68
That is a great social skill to have.
69
What we don't realize is we are speaking all the time.
70
We're speaking on stages, we're speaking on video meetings, we're speaking when we give a toast.
71
Anytime you're giving directions or a statement or a story to more than two or three people, you're speaking.
72
This is a great one to work on if you don't have this social skill.
73
Social skill number five, influencer.
74
Influencers would say yes to the following statements.
75
People typically listen to what I have to say.
76
I can be very persuasive.
77
I am good at pitching myself.
78
Influencing is a really helpful social skill to have in business.
79
It means people listen to you.
80
You can pitch your ideas.
81
You have no problem talking about who you are and what you do.
82
It also means that you can bring people to your point of view.
83
So you're good at clearly expressing an idea and convincing people that they should agree with you.
84
Luckily, an influence is another social skill we can absolutely work on.
85
And I highly recommend it if you're in sales, marketing, or working with big teams.
86
Social skill number six, listener.
87
Listeners would say yes to the following statements.
88
People always come to you to vent, complain, or talk about their problems.
89
You tend to listen more than you talk.
90
You are very good at being fully present with people and giving them your full attention.
91
So listening is one of my bottom social skills.
92
I have to work on it really hard, and that's because I am a high neurotic.
93
I tend to worry, and I am always so worried there's going to be an awkward silence.
94
So the moment there's any kind of break, I try to hop in, make sure people are okay, make sure they're feeling all right, share a funny story or anecdote because I'm worried
95
that they're not having a good time or there's going to be an awkward silence.
96
To help myself with this skill, a couple years ago I took a vow of silence.
97
You might remember it if you follow me on social media, where I was silent, no writing, no talking for an entire eight day period and I did all my normal things.
98
I went to meetings, networking events, just to learn how to be a better listener.
99
It was an incredible experience and I highly recommend it if you want to work on this social skill.
100
Social skill number seven, magnet.
101
Magnets would say yes to the following statements.
102
People usually like you.
103
You are charismatic and authentic.
104
People find you approachable and warm.
105
Okay, so I'm totally obsessed with magnets.
106
If this is your social skill, I love meeting you.
107
I would love to hear from you.
108
Magnets are these very rare, special people.
109
Very few people have this social skill.
110
They're just attractors.
111
People want to meet them.
112
They want to get to know them.
113
The moment they walk into a room, people are just drawn to them.
114
I wrote an entire book about magnets.
115
Captivate is my study of different magnets who have this natural social skill
116
and how people who don't have this social skill can So if you want to be a magnet, I highly recommend checking out Captivate if you haven't already.
117
Social skill number eight, Storyteller.
118
Storytellers would say yes to the following statements.
119
I always have a story to share.
120
I save and remember good stories.
121
People always ask me to give toasts or introduce people.
122
Storytelling is a very specific social skill.
123
It's different than being funny.
124
It's different than being a good conversationalist.
125
We often lump storytelling and being a good conversationalist and humor into the same social skill, but they're actually different.
126
You can be an exceptional storyteller, but not very good at chit chat.
127
You can be an exceptional story and not very good at being funny or having a good timing with jokes.
128
The reason why I point this out is because if you're a good storyteller, you should leverage and strengthen that as much as possible.
129
Put yourself in positions where you're telling a lot of stories.
130
Or if you're a good storyteller, your toasts, your presentations, your speeches should be focused on stories more than anything else.
131
So if you're not a good speaker, but you are a good storyteller, you can use this social skill to leverage the other social skills that you're a little bit weaker in.
132
Social skill number nine, nurturer.
133
Nurturers would say yes to the following statements.
134
You love taking care of people.
135
You tend to be a people pleaser and have trouble saying no. You're very empathetic and compassionate.
136
So I love nurturers.
137
We love to have them in our life because they take care of us.
138
Nurturing, empathy, compassion is a very specific social skill.
139
When you are a nurturer, I found that these folks, you cannot help it.
140
You want to nurture everyone and everything.
141
You're always worried about others more than yourself.
142
The danger, if this is your skill, this is your top skill, you probably have trouble saying no, you probably have trouble setting boundaries,
143
and you might have difficult or toxic people in your life that you have trouble getting rid of.
144
So for this social skill, I want to make sure if this is you, you protect yourself.
145
Social skill number 10, decoder.
146
Decoders would say yes to the following statements.
147
I am very perceptive.
148
I can usually tell what people are thinking and feeling.
149
I'm very good at decoding body language.
150
If you said yes to this, you're a decoder.
151
Decoders are sleuths.
152
You're super perceptive.
153
You're typically good at reading between the lines.
154
Someone might say something, but you notice a facial expression or a nonverbal tick.
155
Decoders are typically very, very accurate at reading people at spotting lies, at spotting deception.
156
I studied decoders so much for my lie detection course.
157
That is because there's a very small person in the population called truth wizards.
158
Truth wizards are naturally good at spotting lies, above average, above average than chance.
159
They're just very good at spotting out any kind of inaccuracies.
160
The good news is you You can absolutely work on your decoding ability.
161
I highly recommend checking out our facial expression guide where you can learn the seven universal micro expressions.
162
That's scienceofpeople.com slash face.
163
Social skill number 11, leader.
164
Leaders would say yes to the following statements.
165
I like to empower others.
166
People often come to me for guidance.
167
I'm better at giving directions than following directions.
168
The interesting thing about leadership is it's different than the influence social skill.
169
So influencers, you're good at getting people to listen to you, you're good at pitching your ideas, you're good at convincing people.
170
But you might not necessarily be leading a team.
171
You might not necessarily be leading by taking the pulse of a group.
172
Leaders typically are good at influencing, but they're even better at seeing an entire team or a family
173
or a baseball team or a group taking the pulse of that group and trying to guide to one direction.
174
They can get lots of people to agree with the same idea or go in the same direction or follow directions.
175
That's a little bit different than influence, but I wouldn't be surprised if you were good at both leadership and influence at the same time.
176
That means you're really set up to be a great leader.
177
Social skill number 12, connector.
178
Connectors would say yes to the following statements.
179
I spend a lot of time and effort networking with others.
180
I'm good at building relationships with influential people.
181
I've developed a large network of colleagues
182
and associates whom I can call on for support when I really need to get things done.
183
We desperately need connectors.
184
So connectors specifically are good at understanding who should know who.
185
You also are very good at building a very robust network that you can rely on.
186
You're good at reaching out to people, relying on them, getting social support.
187
Connecting is a specific kind of social skill.
188
Most people combine being a magnet and being a connector.
189
They're actually different.
190
Magnets attract people to themselves.
191
Connectors bring people together.
192
Social skill number 13, dream builder.
193
Dream builders would say yes to the following statements.
194
You are great at solving people's problems.
195
You love to encourage people.
196
You're known as a fixer.
197
So I love dream builders.
198
Dream builders are often cheerleader types.
199
So they're really positive, really optimistic.
200
You're really good at encouraging and appreciating people.
201
Or you're a fixer.
202
You're a solver.
203
You're good at getting to the heart of the problem.
204
You're good at mediating.
205
You're good at facilitating.
206
People come to you to solve things.
207
And those are two typically different kinds.
208
Typically, but not always, I notice that fixers tend to be males of this version
209
and cheerleaders tend to be females of this social skill.
210
Social skill 14, chameleon.
211
Chameleons would say yes to the following statements.
212
You can get along with anyone.
213
You are a floater socially or professionally.
214
You have a variety of friends and interests.
215
So if you're a chameleon, you are great at adapting yourself. In fact,
216
I saved chameleon as the very last social skill because you're probably the person who has a little bit of everything.
217
If you said two, if you answered yes to two of every single one, you could be a chameleon.
218
That means you're very high in all of them, but you don't specialize in one special thing.
219
Chameleons are great because they're super adaptive.
220
They can fit into almost any group of people and they're really, really valuable on teams.
221
Here's my goal with this video.
222
I want you to think of social skills differently.
223
Not all social skills are created equal.
224
People often think, oh, if I'm going to do a social skills training
225
or I'm going to get better at social skills or I'm going to be more likable, that's one skill.
226
But actually there are 14 different ways that we can be likable and authentic and charismatic.
227
You can have someone who's a very charismatic listener where they don't talk a lot.
228
They're great at being empathetic and compassionate.
229
Maybe their two social skills are listening and nurturing.
230
Versus you can have someone who's very charismatic, who's a great storyteller, a great comedian, and a great influencer.
231
And they're always the life of the party.
232
They're always running conversations.
233
They're always sharing really funny things.
234
Those are two different kinds of charisma, but both of those people are charismatic.
235
My goal for this is for you to think about how you are charismatic.
236
What is your flavor of charisma?
237
And work on honing those skills.
238
Remember, if you want to really level up these skills, I have an entire online course about this called People School.
239
It is 12 of these social skills in depth, in action.
240
We actually work through them.
241
I give you frameworks and case studies.
242

Objetivos de fala para este clipe
Este vídeo é ideal para quem quer aprimorar a fluência na comunicação social, um marco crucial para interações reais. Ao explorar habilidades como "linchpin", "conversationalist" e "comedian", você aprende a identificar e praticar expressões que tornam as conversas mais naturais e impactantes. É perfeito para o método de shadow speak, onde você imita a pronúncia e o ritmo do falante, melhorando sua fluidez de forma prática.
Banco de frases reutilizáveis
- "I am the glue that holds my social group together" (Sou a cola que mantém meu grupo social unido)
- "You have been told you are a great conversationalist" (Já foi dito que você é um ótimo conversador)
- "I can always see the bright side of any situation" (Sempre consigo ver o lado bom de qualquer situação)
- "They can chat with their boss, they can chat with the guy behind the counter" (Eles podem conversar com o chefe, com o cara no balcão)
Essas frases são excelentes para shadow speech, pois combinam estrutura gramatical com expressões coloquiais usadas no dia a dia. Pratique repetindo-as em sincronia com o vídeo para internalizar o fluxo da língua.
Corrija seus pontos fracos
O vídeo ajuda a resolver problemas de ritmo e pronúncia em conversas sociais. Muitos aprendizes lutam para expressar ideias complexas de forma articulada ou para manter uma conversa fluida. Com o método de shadowing, você imita a entonação e a pausa do falante, melhorando sua capacidade de se comunicar de forma natural. Além disso, identificar suas "top three" e "bottom three" habilidades sociais (conforme o vídeo) permite focar no que realmente precisa ser aprimorado, tornando o estudo mais eficiente. Use um shadowing site para gravar e comparar sua performance, garantindo progresso constante.
Aprender inglês com YouTube nunca foi tão eficaz: combine a análise das habilidades sociais do vídeo com o shadowspeak para transformar sua comunicação em algo autêntico e confiante.
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | I've never been · they've always wanted · have been told |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | have been told · are just drawn · are created |
| Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisa | person who talks · people who don · person who has |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
