The Importance of Small Talk.

You may think small talk is pointless, but making conversation is actually important. Why?

1. It’s the gateway to a stronger connection. You need to start somewhere from being a stranger to a trusted advisor.
2. It helps people feel comfortable around you. Being likeable gets you hired, builds rapport, and creates trust, all crucial for a lawyer trying to impart advice.
3. I​t’s helpful for your career because you can make an interview or a meeting flow easily. The default is an awkward encounter. Don’t let that happen, and take charge in making things flow!
