At a time when there's so much disconnection, let's talk skills for connecting intentionally & memorably in virtual and in-person worlds!
About this event
Hi friends! I'm Elicia, author of Don't Be a Stranger: Creating Connections & Memorable First Impressions in Everyday Life. I created this workshop to dive deeper into tips from my book on intentionally creating opportunities to connect more memorably and positively with others. I look forward to bringing the concepts to life thru your questions and discussion. You don't have to have read the book to benefit, but I recommend it! I want this to be a self-help book you read AND apply!
This workshop is Part 2 of a 3-part series on how to personalize strategies for deeper connection. We'll focus on why confronting fears and discomfort in talking to strangers can help you be more successful interpersonally. We'll review tips for where you position yourself (in life and virtually) to practice skills for connecting with others, strategies for remembering names, and "don't do's" to minimize awkward moments. Please come prepared to share a favorite memory of a time when you connected with a stranger and how as well as what gets in your way at times. We'll talk about my mantra, "Do It Scared, Do It Ugly, Do It Often" for overcoming fear through application of a psychological concept of systematic desensitization.
We have opportunities to connect with others anytime we engage in dating/relationships, job interviewing, work changes, promotions, networking, events, traveling, coffee shops, or simply at the gas station. Will you join me in detaching from the "why, what will it mean" to seeing 'talking to strangers' as a way of contributing to a kinder world one memorable moment at a time? Let's make it more fun and easy to talk to strangers.
