我們都遇到了一些人，不得不找點事談。許多人打破沉默的一個標準問題：“那麼，你是做什麼的？”但談論工作，即使是在人機交往中，也不是建立融洽關係的最佳作法。
相反地，問問他們的愛好，他們支持的慈善機構，他們長大的地方，甚至他們最喜歡的超級英雄是誰。如果避開工作不舒服，你可以問一個問題：“你對什麼有興趣？”或者，“今年發生在你身上的最好的事情是什麼？”
這些類型的詢問可以激發起一系列答案，讓其他人談論工作，他們的孩子，他們的新車——他們想要什麼？問開放性的問題。Stop Asking “What Do You Do?” When Networking
We’ve
all been in the situation of meeting someone and having to find something to
talk about. Many people break the silence with a standard question: “So, what
do you do?” But talking about work, even at networking events, isn’t always the
best way to build rapport.
Instead,
ask people about their hobbies, the charities they support, where they grew up,
or even who their favorite superhero is. If steering away from work doesn’t
feel comfortable, you can ask a question like “What excites you right now?” or
“What’s the best thing that happened to you this year?”
These
kinds of queries invite a range of answers and let the other person talk about work,
their kids, their new car — whatever they want.
Asking open-ended questions can lead to a more interesting conversation, and
you might even make a new friend.
