How to improve your conversation skills

Conversation is an important way of communication, so work on your conversation skill
As you do for your look
Here some points you should take care of:

• Eye contact is one of the important aspects when dealing with other. Maintaining good eye contact shows respect and interest in what people say
• Your body position should be in the listening receptive mode as well as your head
• Keep open and friendly body gestures, no crossed arms or legs
• Respect the personal distance of others (personal zone )
• Don’t forget you have two ears and only one mouth ,so try to use them in that order listen twice as you talk
• Finally ,start your conversation with open ended questions which leave others to work out the answers like :Who, why, what or where better than :are you, do you, will you
Because they invite more than simple yes or no answers as
Q -do you like this movie?
A- YES
BUT if the question is
Q -what about this movie?
Or
-how do you find this movie?
The answer will be more than yes...Or no ….

With nice smile and all the above notes you can promote your conversation skills and deserve to be a good communicator
