“10 Ways to Have a Better Conversation”

The video “10 Ways to Have a Better Conversation” goes into detail about how most people do not communicate well with others and how it is affecting us as people. The video is led by Celeste Headlee, a radio host who has been communicating on the radio with the media for years.In the TedTalk she explains the ten helpful tips for having a conversation. The ten tips are : not to multitask,don’t pontificate,use open ended questions, go with the flow, if you don’t know say that you don’t know,don’t equate your experience with theirs,try not to repeat yourself,stay out of the weeds,listen, and to be brief. The two points I find most helpful for my own life and conversations is to go with the flow and if you don’t know, say you don’t know. By going with the flow we will not repeat questions and stop listening to the person speaking. Saying you don’t know is also good because you can make sure you’re not saying things that are not true.
