How to be a conversational detective
In every conversation, start listening to the threads.
These aren't just unique words people say, it's the emotion on their face, their folded arms when talking about a specific topic, the tonality in their voice.
These are all threads, and when you're in a conversation, by noticing these cues, you open up the conversation for more depth, rather than staying stuck in small talk.
1. Notice the thread
2. Acknowledge the thread
3. Pull on the thread by asking questions
