🤝Small Talk at Work

You can ask your colleagues the following questions:


“How are you doing today?”
“How’s your morning going so far?”
“How’s your day been?”
“Has your day been busy so far?”
“My afternoon’s been kinda slow. How’s yours going?”

If someone asks you about your day, try to focus on being positive – and show that you are a hard worker!

“This morning has been pretty busy, but I like it that way.”
“Things are slower than usual, so I’ve been able to work through my to-do list.”
“I’ve been focused on the presentation for my client later this week. I’m looking forward to it.”
“Things are off to a good start!”

Small talks can be boring 😬

So you can make them more fun😁

If they're asking you how your weekend was, the quickest way to turn small talk into a real conversation is to go beyond the boring, "it was good." Why was it good?

If your colleague just say "My weekend was good" , then take hold of that and ask them what they did. And when you do, actually listen to what they say and try to find something more you can either ask about or to which you can relate.
