What it is
Beyond simple small talk: what to say and when to say it to be likable, connect, and make a memorable impression.
Actionable and applicable verbal maneuvers for just about every phase of conversation—good and bad. Whatever your conversational goal, you’ll find tactics to put you in a winning position—in a literal sense with arguments and in a figurative sense with making friends. You can never underestimate the power of a simple conversation.
No more: interview mode, awkward silence, or struggling to hold people’s attention.
How to Talk to Anyone is a unique book. It provides guidance for every social situation you’ll come across, including "What should I say?", "Hello, how was your weekend?", "I disagree with you", "Stop doing that", "Here’s a story", and "Good-bye".
You’ll find 100 percent actionable, nuanced, and subtle tactics to salvage your worst situations and enhance your best—all field-tested and proven through thousands of conversations. In addition to shrewd insights to make conversation flow, you’ll learn to win arguments and diffuse dirty tricks.
Patrick King is an internationally best-selling author and social skills coach. His writing draws of a variety of sources, from scientific research, academic experience, coaching, and real life experience. He suffered for years as a shy introvert and managed to boil human interaction down to a science—first for himself and now for you.
He is without doubt a uniquely qualified individual to teach you these tactics.
Exact words and phrases—always know what to say for social engagement. Common and subtle conversational habits you need to stop right now. How to turn enemies into friends and charm just about anyone. How to charm and captivate anyone. Simple conversation is the gatekeeper to friendships, your dream career, romance, and overall happiness. The ability to connect with anyone is an underrated superpower.
