A great business conversation can change your destiny—or at the very least, can make your day.

Yet most of us sit through meetings that suck the life out of us. We meet with people who are gifted at pressing our buttons and causing us to feel bad and act in ways we regret. And there are some conversations we need to have or get better at having, but we don’t because we think it’s impossible or we’re not capable enough.

Most business advice on having better conversations focuses on what to say. But that’s a mistake. Scientists agree that 90 to 95% of communication is NON-VERBAL.

There are invisible human dynamics at work in every conversation that influences the outcome and has nothing to do with what is being said.

I want to teach you what’s really happening in every conversation and meeting so you:

• Represent yourself best
• Broach tender topics with confidence
• Deal with difficult people in ways that are kind yet firm
• Make better connections with your audience for better outcomes

Join me, Stephen Moegling, as we go down the rabbit hole of human communication: so you have the best chance at having Connected Conversations in business.

Connected Conversations are conversations when you’re connected with your audience: they’re not distracted, disgruntled, or disengaged, and neither are you. And when you and your audience are connected, the sky’s the limit.

Connected Conversations are what we need more of in business today. Less friction. Less gridlock. Less fear that you won’t be heard or respected.

If you’re a leader, Connected Conversations are what your team asks of you. And if you’re on the path to leadership (which we all are), learning the ancient art and science of connecting with people is perhaps your greatest asset for having the life you want.
