MATT ABRAHAMS: Small talk, I think, is actually a misnomer.
2
We refer to small talk as any chit-chat or just conversation that we don't put a lot of import on.
3
When, in fact, small talk is a wonderful way of connecting, bonding, learning, growing.
4
And what makes it so challenging is the fact that we can't have a script.
5
We have to just go with what's happening in the moment.
6
We often think that it is a test for us.
7
It's like a tennis match, where I've got to lob something over to the person or people I'm talking to, and I hope it lands and goes well.
8
I think a better way to look at small talk is like that game of hacky sack-- that little beanbag where everybody is trying to keep it up all at the same time and never have it hit the ground.
9
If you envision your job as collaborating with others to keep the conversation moving rather than a hot potato tennis match, where I just need to get it back to the other person, it can really change, one, how it flows, and two, the experience from your perspective.
10
All of a sudden, it's something that's enjoyable rather than something that's scary.
11
When you first get into a small talk situation, I think we need to establish appropriate goals.
12
Rachel Greenwald, a matchmaker and an academic, has this wonderful saying.
13
Your goal is to be interested, not interesting.
14
A lot of us go into these situations thinking that we need to be really fascinating, engaging, and interesting, when, in fact, we just need to be present and be interested in the conversation that's happening.
15
It also helps reduce the anxiety many of us feel.
16
We feel like we are being judged.
17
And the reality is you are being judged.
18
You can reduce the intensity of that spotlight we feel by putting your attention on the other.
19
Many of us have this desire as soon as something spontaneous happens and we have to respond to do it as quickly as possible.
20
We have this sense that speed to respond in somehow is associated with competence.
21
But really, what reflects best on your competence is an appropriate response.
22
And appropriateness can take a little bit of time.
23
We have all said something we didn't mean to say because it wasn't clear, or it wasn't appropriate.
24
Pausing helps reduce that likelihood.
25
So here are some things you can do to help slow yourself down.
26
Paraphrasing is wonderful.
27
Why? Not just because you are repeating the gist of what somebody said to make sure you're clearly going to respond to what's asked or what's needed, but paraphrasing forces you to slow down and listen more carefully.
28
Paraphrase isn't what a five-year-old does who parrots back what you've said.
29
It's a distillation of what the other person said.
30
And when you paraphrase it, you do several things.
31
One, you validate the other person because you're saying I heard you.
32
You're not necessarily agreeing.
33
Paraphrasing doesn't mean agreement.
34
It just means this is what I heard.
35
And it validates the content.
36
So you validate the person, but the content-- the person can say, no, no, no, no.
37
What I really meant was this.
38
So it helps with fidelity.
39
Most of us listen just enough to get the gist of what somebody's saying, and then we immediately start judging, rehearsing, and responding.
40
When I paraphrase, I have to listen super intently.
41
I have to listen to understand what's the bottom line of what you're saying?
42
That slows me down.
43
And by slowing my own thoughts down and then paraphrasing them, I buy myself some time to really think.
44
There's always something to say.
45
You can always ask a question.
46
My mother-in-law was amazing at small talk.
47
She had a black belt in small talk.
48
And her superpower was a simple phrase.
49
She would pause for a moment, and she would say, tell me more.
50
If you are ever in a situation, a communication, conversation where you don't know what to say, most of the time you could simply say, tell me more, or give me some more detail, or what did you mean about that point?
51
And just by giving the person an opportunity to speak again, that gives you time to find what you might want to say and to connect to it.
52
CREW: Tell me more.
53
When you say, tell me more have to act inquisitively.
54
If you just say, tell me more, it's not-- but if you say tell me-- yeah.
55
Tell me more.
56
Tell me more about that.
57
Yeah. Mistakes are normal and natural in communication.
58
We make them all the time.
59
Spontaneous communication is about connection, not perfection.
60
You know, in film and TV, directors will ask their actors to have multiple takes.
61
A take is just another shot at doing the same thing.
62
So an actor might say something in one way very passionately, or they might say it in another way more-- being more curious.
63
Those are all different takes.
64
So I'd like people to reframe a mistake as a missed take.
65
What you did wasn't wrong.
66
There might be another way to do it, and we can try it again.
67
Many of us, when we feel very uncomfortable in spontaneous speaking situations, we go on too long.
68
We're discovering what we're thinking as we're thinking it.
69
So we just take people on the journey of our thought process as we're speaking, and we keep going on and on and on.
70
It's almost a defensive technique, where if I just throw out a lot of stuff, that maybe something will stick and people will think, oh, that person's smart or they know what they're talking about.
71
Concision is almost always better in communication.
72
My mother has this wonderful saying.
73
I know she didn't create it, but it's tell me the time, don't build me the clock.
74
Many of us are clock-builders in these spontaneous speaking situations.
75
And we have to remind ourselves when we start speaking just tell the time.
76
I know the irony that I'm talking about concision, and I was not concise in that answer.
77
One of the best ways to be concise and clear is to leverage structure.
78
Structure is not a listing of ideas.
79
It's not bullet points.
80
Structure is a logical connection of your points.
81
It's like a recipe or a map.
82
Now, this sounds ironic, right?
83
We're talking about being spontaneous, and here I am saying structure is the key to spontaneity.
84
But we see this in our life in many other facets.
85
If you enjoy jazz music, jazz music isn't just random playing.
86
Jazz music follows particular structures, chord progressions, connections of notes.
87
So we can leverage structure to help our communication be tighter and clearer.
88
One of my favorite structures of all time, because it's so useful in so many different situations, is three simple questions.
89
What? So what?
90
Now what? The what is your idea, your product, your service, your belief.
91
The so what is why is it important to the person or people you're talking to?
92
And then now what is what comes next.
93
Maybe I'm going to show you something, take your questions, set up another appointment.
94
When it comes to small talk, this is a magical tool.
95
Imagine you're at a corporate mixer, and you're going in, and there are people in the company that you have not yet met.
96
So if I'm engaging you in conversation I can say, hey, what brings you here?
97
That's the what.
98
When you answer, I can say, oh, why is that important, or why do you find that interesting?
99
That's the so what.
100
And then after that, I can ask a question like, oh, so what more are you going to do, or what are you going to do next, or do you want to join me and go over here?
101
So I've got the now what is a question.
102
As with anything that you're trying to learn, you have to practice it.
103
When you read something or listen to a podcast, pause it, stop your reading, think what was it about, why is it important to me, and how can I use it?
104
By drilling it, it becomes more natural.
105
When we're in small talk situations, we often initiate with trite, very common phrases.
106
How are you?
107
What brings you here?
108
What do you do?
109
These are simple, reflexive ways to get started, but they actually don't take you very far.
110
I am a big fan of initiating through questions, but through questions that connect to the particular context and environment that I'm in.
111
Just the other day, I was in a situation for small talk.
112
And the very first thing I did, I came up to somebody I didn't know and I said, this is amazing to me.
113
There are more people in this room wearing blue shirts than I think I've seen in a long time.
114
And the person said, you know what?
115
You're right.
116
That's really interesting.
117
And all of a sudden the conversation was off and running.
118
All I did was notice something in the environment.
119
Initiating with something that piques somebody's curiosity, something that might be highlighting something that's not known or commonly discussed in the moment, can really invite people in versus hi, how are you?
120
And they say, fine.
121
Well, now I'm back to where I started, and it's even more awkward, right?
122
Perhaps more challenging than initiating small talk is getting out of small talk.
123
Many of us rely on biology.
124
Oh, I'm thirsty.
125
I'm going to go get a drink.
126
I'm hungry, or I need to go to the bathroom.
127
Biology is not necessarily the best exit for these circumstances.
128
I love an approach I learned from Rachel Greenwald.
129
It's called the white flag approach.
130
If you know anything about auto racing, prior to the last lap, the final lap, they wave a white flag to signal to all the drivers that the race is ending.
131
As you're drawing near to the end of the conversation either because you need to leave, or you want to leave, or the conversation has sort of run its course, you signal that.
132
You say, I need to go in a moment, but-- and this is where you ask one last question, provide one last bit of feedback.
133
So you continue the conversation on for a little bit.
134
So it might sound something like this.
135
I need to get going because there's some friends over there I need to meet.
136
But before I go, I want to just a little bit more about that trip you were telling me about to Hawaii.
137
And together, you can draw the conversation to an end rather than you abruptly saying, oh, I need to go to the bathroom.
138
Or, wow, that looks like good food over there.
139
It's just a much better, cleaner way to end a small talk conversation.

เคล็ดลับการฝึก
การฝึก ชาโดว์อิ้งภาษาอังกฤษ หรือ shadow speech เป็นวิธีที่ยอดเยี่ยมในการปรับปรุงการออกเสียงภาษาอังกฤษ ตามจำนวนบทสนทนาที่ฟัง อาจจะนำเสนอได้ในรูปแบบการพูดตาม (shadowing) โดยคุณสามารถเริ่มจากการฟังวลีที่สำคัญและพยายามพูดตามอย่างช้าๆ เพื่อให้คุณสามารถจับเสียงและการแสดงออกได้อย่างถูกต้อง
ให้ลองฟังเสียงในวิดีโอที่มีความเร็วพอประมาณ และใช้เทคนิคการตั้งคำถามที่ชวนสนทนา โดยเฉพาะวลี "Tell me more" ที่ช่วยเพิ่มโอกาสในการสนทนา ผู้เรียนควรเน้นไปที่การฟังอย่างตั้งใจ การพักและเล่นบทบาทเป็นผู้ฟังที่ดี เพื่อให้สามารถเรียนรู้การสื่อสารได้ดีขึ้น การทำเช่นนี้นอกจากจะช่วย ปรับปรุงการออกเสียงภาษาอังกฤษ ของคุณแล้ว ยังทำให้คุณรู้สึกมั่นใจมากขึ้นในสถานการณ์จริง
จำไว้ว่าความตั้งใจในการฟังและสนใจในรายละเอียดเล็กๆ น้อยๆ จะช่วยให้คุณสามารถสร้างความสัมพันธ์ที่ดีในบทสนทนา ทำให้การสื่อสารมีความหมายและสนุกสนานมากขึ้นในการใช้ shadowspeaks
ไวยากรณ์ในวิดีโอนี้
โครงสร้างที่ผู้พูดใช้บ่อยที่สุด พร้อมคำพูดจริงจากวิดีโอ:
| โครงสร้าง | ในวิดีโอ |
|---|---|
| Passive voice be + กริยาช่อง 3 — เน้นสิ่งที่เกิดขึ้น ไม่ใช่ผู้กระทำ | being judged · is associated |
