Podcasts about great conversations

“People don't need a spreadsheet of reasons to trust you. They don't want another pitch deck. Another promise. Another polished lie. They are waiting for a signal. And what is the most powerful signal: "I see you. I hear you. You matter." Jack Barsky, a former KGB spy, did not learn this in Harvard Business School. He learned it from his tradecraft as a spy. In the Great Conversation, we navigate intention, truth, and trust between the two worlds. And we end with a question about legacy that many of us can learn from.

Alison Wood Brooks is a celebrated Harvard Business School Professor who studies the hidden architecture of conversations. Her groundbreaking work shows that while all of us can struggle with difficult conversations, We're often not very good at the easy ones either (even though we have them all the time). Alison argues that part of the reason for this is because conversation is one of the most complex, demanding, and delicate of all human tasks. Every time we converse with one another, a wide range of possibilities for misinterpretation and misunderstanding arise. It's just part of it. And yet, at the same time, conversations can also be a source of great joy. Each one offering an opportunity to express who we are,to learn who others are—and to feel connected, loved, and alive.In Alison's words, there's a "magic" that happens when we get conversation right.Today we are going to have a deep and wide ranging conversation about how to have better conversations. Alison and I will dive into themes from her wonderful new book:TALK: The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being OurselvesThroughout our time together Alison will offer powerful insights, moving stories, and practical tweaks to not only make our everyday conversations better,but that also might just have a profound positive impact on our relationships at work and in life.For more on Alison, her book, and the wonderful work she is doing please visit alisonwoodbrooks.com.Did you find this episode inspiring?

Whether we're interacting with colleagues, clients, friends, family members or strangers, conversations are the way most of us build — or break — relationships. And yet we don't often think deeply about how to approach this type of casual communication.  Alison Wood Brooks, associate professor at Harvard Business School, has studied what it takes to create a great conversation and offers research-backed tips for improving your skills. Brooks is the author of the book Talk: The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being Ourselves.

Welcome to episode #973 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Alison Wood Brooks is one of the leading voices in understanding the science of human conversation, and her latest book, Talk - The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being Ourselves, explores just how complex, delicate, and transformative our daily interactions can be. As a professor at Harvard Business School, Alison has spent years studying the psychology behind dialogue - why some conversations feel effortless while others fall flat, how we navigate social dynamics, and why even the simplest exchanges can shape our relationships and success. In our conversation, we explore the difference between Q&A and true dialogue, the often-overlooked art of reading the room, and the skills that can make or break an interaction. Alison shares insights on the role of AI in companionship, the way egocentrism naturally seeps into our conversations, and why teaching conversational skills is more critical than ever in a digital-first world. We also discuss the post-Covid social shift, the importance of face-to-face interactions, and how conversational missteps - something we all experience - can actually strengthen relationships if handled the right way. Her TALK Maxims (Topics, Asking, Levity, Kindness) offer a simple yet powerful framework for improving everyday communication, whether in personal relationships, business, or even in navigating difficult discussions. If you've ever struggled with what to say, when to say it, or how to be a better conversationalist, this episode will help you rethink the way you talk... and listen. Enjoy the conversation...

You probably think raw vegetables are healthier than cooked vegetables. Sometimes they are. But some common veggies get a nutrient boost from the right kind of heat. This episode begins with several of those vegetables and an explanation of how cooking makes them better for you. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/raw-veggies-are-healthier/ Humans are wired to imitate others like no other creature on earth. In fact, almost everything you do today is the result of imitating someone else at some point in your life. But wait! Aren't we independent thinkers with intelligence and ability to think for ourselves? Yes, but according to my guest the primary way you learn everything is by copying others – from driving a car, writing a letter, eating a meal, everything you've learned how to do came from imitating others. Here to explain why this is important to understand is R. Alexander Bentley, Professor and Chair of the Department of Anthropology at the University of Tennessee and coauthor of the book, I'll Have What She's Having: Mapping Social Behavior (https://amzn.to/4kbT4NK). Your conversational skills are key to your success in every aspect of your life. People like people who speak well. Yet, I suspect no one ever really taught you how to converse. You just do it. Conversation is both an art and a science. And someone who studies it is my guest Alison Wood Brooks, Professor of Business Administration and Hellman Faculty Fellow at the Harvard Business School. She is author of the book TALK: The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being Ourselves (https://amzn.to/4bgzWtF). Listen as she reveals the anatomy of good conversation and what can often go wrong. One of the cool things about a snowfall is how quiet it is afterwards. And it's not just quiet – it's a different kind of quiet. Why is that? Listen as I reveal the science of the quiet after a new fallen snow.

A “Washing Machine” sits in each company ready to toss you into a cycle of doing. If you let yourself and others enter it, you have shut the door on the full potential of the humans who have come alongside you to create something of value. These people have a conscious or unconscious need for meaning in their lives. If you are the leader: by title or by ownership, you have a choice to make. You can recognize that each person is searching for alignment and see your role as inviting them into your journey, or you can determine what you can extract, and mine it until it doesn't produce the return you need. What kind of builder are you? This Great Conversation suggests that there is a way to build for value that does not subtract from another. And that ultimately this path can change you and our world.

The world spins off wheels (models used by any human organization to achieve success in the market). But what if the wheel begins to slow or suddenly stops? In this great conversation we face the existential question: Are we ready for the change that is upon us? This change is multi-faceted. The change is a wheel that can release the energy of the market, the organizations within a market, and the people that help push and pull it into significance. But it needs leaders who see the change and help others through it. We want revolutions in the wheel, not a conflagration. In this Great Conversation, we immerse ourselves in the variables and potential root cause of this change. A strategic "integrator" joins us. Someone who has spent time in the military, consulted with Fortune 500 companies, and consumes data that speaks to the evolving socio-economic road ahead.  Automation scares people. Always has. And it should if you are waiting to see what happens next.   As we conversed and I reflected on the technology transitions I have been through for the last 50 years, I realized this is the perfect time for every leader, including me, to lend a hand. The perfect question came to mind: Can I help others on this AI Path to Value™?  Read more: at The Great Conversation

‘The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.' — Attributed to George Bernard Shaw “Isn't it time to stop holding people accountable?” You are a leader. You take on a role called owner, executive, or manager. Or you are part of a team. You are trying to get things done. And you have laggards among you. What is the common response"? Hold them accountable! This is a logical next step. Measures of performance. And if you aren't measuring up, bad things happen. You have been there. It starts with a conversation. Then when that doesn't work, talk with HR. Maybe they can help. After all, in this culture of litigation, it doesn't hurt to document. And you find yourself and your company accelerating down the path of correction. After all, you need to “hold them accountable”. A Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) may follow. And it screams to the employee and to their peers, that you have now been given a path to exit, not a path to value. Someone has to pay for this lack of accountability. And this is where a Great Conversation with Aaron Schmookler, the founder of The Yes Works, creates the foundation for a new idea. Aaron has a company that promises to unleash your people from this death spiral. It seeks to provide agency to the worker and to the business. And the agency starts with the gift of clarity. Owners and leaders: Are you clear what your mission is? Have you articulated that to your people? Do they know how they contribute to your definition of success? Do they know what the reward for that success is? Do they understand it, want it, and have the skills / capacity to achieve it? If so, then they are personally accountable to themselves! As Aaron might say: “The greatest kindness one can give another is agency over the consequences of their actions.” When we err, it is a learning. When learning is applied, we grow. When we grow, we have taken a step on a path to value. This demands a great conversation with your leadership team. It just might be the beginning of a reformation in how you identify, onboard, and mentor your people until they are unstoppable.

When you use sarcasm in an email or text message, you are skating on thin ice. This episode begins by revealing the dangers of sarcasm in electronic communication and why it can get you in trouble. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/perceptual-asymmetries/201501/do-you-use-sarcasm-in-e-mails Universally, people love cute things. When you see a baby or a puppy or kitten, you react in a unique way. So, what is it about cuteness that we are attracted to? What happens to us internally when we see something cute? And why is it important? Here to explain this is Joshua Paul Dale, a professor at Chuo University in Tokyo and who has been featured as an expert on cuteness in The New York Times, CNN, National Geographic and The Guardian. He is also author of the book, Irresistible: How Cuteness Wired Our Brains and Conquered the World (https://amzn.to/4hkNMgw). You engage in conversations every day with people without thinking a lot about it. But there is an art and science to good conversation and the more you understand it, the better your conversation skills become. Here to dive into the anatomy of good conversation is Alison Wood Brooks. She is a professor at Harvard Business School where she created and teaches a course called TALK. As a behavioral scientist, she is a leading expert on the science of conversation. Alison is author of the book TALK: The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being Ourselves (https://amzn.to/4gVF88z).

Join the Beyond the Thesis Skool community! Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of Beyond the Thesis With Papa PhD! I took some time in the middle of my family vacations to record a very short minisode and send you my 2025 wishes of a year full of enriching conversations!Listen through and you will also find a great reading recommendation for this coming year and a call for listener 2025 wishes! Episode Transcript Welcome to Beyond the Thesis with Papa PhD, the podcast that delves into the diverse and impactful roles scientists can play beyond the lab. With me, David Mendes. Hi. David Mendes here and I hope you've had a great holiday break and that 2025 is starting, in the best way possible for you. I've been on break with my family. My kids are still on vacation and so I'm taking a little time to say hi, to wish you a happy 2025 full of the best projects, full of the best results and also to share my wish for you for this coming year. I myself am betting heavily this year on really investing in networking, in meeting and talking with more people outside my, let's say, my comfort zone, outside my immediate circle, and I really, really hope that you can do the same. It's really easy to go through a year so fast and talk to the same, you know, dozen people who are around us in the lab. But it is really, really important for you who are a burgeoning scientist, a burgeoning researcher to expand your network. And meaning also, not only to expand your network in your domain, but to expand the the diversity that exists in your network. Meet people from government, you know, from policy, meet people from industry, get to know how they got the job they got, get to know how you can contribute. It's gonna be more and more important for you to be able to know what's happening outside the walls of university because those places are probably where you are going to eventually land professionally and you really want to land there knowing the terrain or at least having some knowledge of the terrain already. And there's no better way of doing it than talking with people who are who are there, who've been there 5 years, 10 years, who have the same or or whoever Jason, Jason profiles to yours scientifically and to hear their stories of how they got there. I am going to I'm not at the same stage buying, but I'm going to try and do the same, with the podcast, for example, And I I really, really wish for you that this year that's that's starting is gonna be filled with surprising, interesting, enriching, and real and human conversations that will lead you to have a better and better grasp on what is out there professionally for you, but more importantly, where you feel that you are going to fit once you get your degree or or where you're going to fit once you you, you know, finish whichever professional pivot you are in right now. For me, one of the ways I'm going to do this is to get closer to you, the listener. And the first way that I'm doing this, I've just created at the end of last year, a community on Skool.com. It's easy to find. You go to skool.com/paphpd and the community is there. It's a burgeoning, small community of people like you trying to figure out their, you know, the next chapter for their career, be it because they're finishing a degree or because they're pivoting after a first or second job after their their degree. But like I said, my goal with the community is to be able to talk directly with you, and that's why one of the things I do on school is to have regular live sessions, each week, 3 times a week. So you you get to talk directly with me, with other people if they're there too, but you get direct access to me. But also, the other thing that I'm doing there is I'm creating some free courses that I'm publishing there and there only, plus the community is going to have priority in accessing other training or mentoring that I am going to be rolling out this yea...

In this Great Conversation podcast we excavate the human and organizational need for better. For organizations that employ people, this is about the alignment of people, purpose, and organization. We turn to one of the former leaders responsible for learning and development at Microsoft. We learn about the “data-informed” approach that transformed technology leaders that has been transcended with a significant developmental innovation at WiLD Leaders: the ability to measure personal, team, and organizational trust. Once measured a "Map to Better" can be realized. 

Listen as Seth Farbman of Vstock Transfer/ Sharemedia.co,  and Sanjay Batra, discuss Sanjay's journey from a corporate career at Johnson & Johnson to entrepreneurship, the mission behind We Thrive, and the innovative products they offer. The conversation also touches on the challenges of transitioning from a large corporation to a startup, the importance of targeting diverse audiences, and the future trends in wellness and aesthetics. Sanjay shares insights on balancing his roles and the freedom that comes with being an entrepreneur, as well as the company's commitment to addressing unmet needs in the market.

I have often said that worldview is a predictor of behavior. What is a worldview? A worldview is the narrative you absorbed through your family, education, and experience that act as a toolbox of beliefs, assumptions, and values elements. by which you interact with the world. It is the story of you and your place in the world. The Great Conversation is really about worldview creating the soil for ideas and actions that change the world. This great conversation starts with a young man who was seeking his place in the world from humble beginnings, oldest of seven kids in a lower middle class family that often struggled. This formed the foundation of responsibility and the agency that life could be better. He could have gone into professional baseball after his junior year in college, but had the foresight to see the lure of the game was not going to pay off. He finished school, and like many of us, took a job to pay the bills. The first one was with a general contractor. The second one was in sales. Each of them was formative. However, he was a voracious learner. He dove into books by Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger about value investing. He quizzed his father-in-law about commercial real estate. This created the foundation for his venture into commercial real estate. And the rest is a fable you must listen to because he went from a net worth of $50,000 to a portfolio of business interests between $15-$20M in 14 years. Along the way he left his mind and spirit open creating the opportunity for mentorship and learning. And now he is giving back by seeking to upgrade others as he himself was upgraded by his mindset and fortuitous connections along the way. Operation Upgrade is all about him identifying the learners and providing tools and a hand as they strive to see the possible upgrades in themselves. .. This was a great conversation with a man with a worldview that is upgrading the world around him.

So much has changed for Dave Moore since he last joined me here on the Mario Rosenstock podcast. Not only has Today FM's Dermot and Dave show now become ‘The Dave Moore Show', after Dermot Whelan left to focus on his mindfulness career, but Dave can now call himself an author!He has just published his first book, ‘Dave's Bad Jokes' - a carefully curated collection of questionable gags sent into the show by listeners over the last few years. Press play to hear all about it, and indeed some well-known personalities phoning in to read out their favourite bad jokesDave and I also nerd out over music, accents, and comedy, and he talks about life on air without the co-host he has shared a studio with for over 20 years.COMEDY – Matt Cooper loses the rag over Donald Trump's crazy cabinet appointmentsProduced by Patrick Haughey, AudioBrand

Your team is in the room. It is a strategic moment. High risk, high reward. And you are the team leader. How do you help them navigate this moment of risk and opportunity? This is happening in board rooms, executive management team meetings, and in organizational teams throughout your company. Do you have the language, processes, and tools embedded in your people so they can meet the moment that matters? A different mindset is needed. One you vet for before hiring. One you ensure is part of the onboarding process. One that is persistently refreshed and used. In this Great Conversation, we tease out whether Dr. Gav Schneider might have the recipe for this and whether it can break out from being a “security” program and into the mainstream toolbox for leaders up and down the corporate ladder. It is called “Presilience”. Enjoy another Great Conversation on the future of work.

Emilio Sanchez in the house!! The MAC Effect welcomes my Cuñado. As season 3 continues, episode 5 belongs to Emilio. Guys, please tune in, listen to how he expresses himself about his child hood, growing up with a single mother basically, and how he meet Janney aka Chiquis. I loved the conversation we carried and truth be told, I was a little nervous with Emilio, more so than with Chiquis. But why you may ask?? Because as men… you don't know if you will get someone to speak open or not and because I want to respect my guest, I always want to step in with ease and love. But Emilio helped me on this episode. The guy shows his amazing heart, how willing he is to bless those around him and over all how God, life and proper mentorship modeled him to what he is today. He truly has a great head on his shoulders. Thank you for being on this journey with me in Season 3, we take and learn from each guest, from different background, different career paths and different believe systems. Which shows us all… anything is possible when YOU stop putting limits to what God created. Purpose is found, worked for or even earned… purpose is what God has gifted you to do… you already have it! Use it, enjoy it, and grow it. Amen! As the season continues…. I'm creating great content, great episodes with celebrities, artist, self made bosses, entrepreneurs, which all have shown me… we are all the same. We all have the ability and opportunity. I have been very humbled and empowered by these great guest. I pray you also learn, grow and develop. Healing is very important for a greater leap to our full potential. The MAC Effect was created to help you achieve you optimal peak, to challenge chore beliefs, and reach goals that you didn't think you would or maybe have even died. Not today guys! We fight for ourselves whether we feel like it or not… why? Because its not your fault… its never been your fault… you are ENOUGH! Amen! #Themaceffect #maceffect #mac #mikecampos6 #god #love #hope #faith #joy #question #awakening #understanding #building #fundamentals #ihaveaquestion #iwanttolearn #growing #growingpains #letsgetitright #nottoday #nottodaysatan #jesuschrist #inJesusname #lovealwayswins #peace #letsgetit #testing #learning #process #developing #maturing #fatherhood #motherhood #husband #wife #partnership #equals #tildeath #god #processing  #process #guest #podcast #shorts #growth

A conversation is a delicate dance between two people. From one to the other, stories slowly unravel, surprises are met, ideas come to life, and life is learnt as words flow freely between us. But to make a conversation great, we must relish the silences, the questions, and the spaces in between - because it is only with curiosity and presence that we can take the conversation to places we never imagined.This week, I am in conversation with me, myself, and I for a special solo episode on the lost art of conversation. As a facilitator, podcast host and experienced conversation partner, I share my wisdoms, tips, non-negotiables, and ingredients for a great conversation.I hope the irony is not lost on you!Find out about:My 3 rules for effective question askingWhy the follow-up question is the most important question of allThe beautiful importance of silence in conversationsThe power of the word ‘and' to open the door to a new perspectiveWhy do we stop having great conversations with our loved ones?Don't miss the next episode: subscribe to the show with your favourite podcast player.And download the free 1-page summary, so you can always have the key points of this episode to hand.Links:Watch the video recording of this episode on YouTube.Connect to Myriam Hadnes:LinkedInWebsiteSupport the show**Click here to navigate through all episodes via this interactive podcast map.**If you're inspired by our podcast and crave similar conversations, consider joining Dr Myriam Hadnes' NeverDoneBefore Facilitation Community. **If you're keen to master the art of facilitation, discover our expert-led live, online Facilitation Courses at the NDB Academy. **If you enjoy the show, consider a one-off donation and contribute to the ongoing costs of running the podcast.

I have seen it before. So have you. A disconnect: with your people with your stakeholders in your market with your prospects and customers with your board And most important of all, you have compartments within you that are silos of excellence but are not integrated into a highly compelling story of you. We invited Chris Hare, the Founder and Principal of The Storied Future, to our Podcast to discuss his journey in creating a story for himself, his company, and those he serves. This portion of his quote next to his picture, above, grabbed me: “I have the privilege of working with values-driven C-Suite leaders who have the audacity to believe they can bend the future to their will.” We discuss what “values-driven” means as well as “bend the future to their will”, and why they are both key in creating a storied future personally and professionally. Chris is highly transparent. It is because of the psychic pain he experienced that he was able to use this as a powerful transformational tool for others. As the founder of The Sage Group, a value transformation firm, I know how powerful “story” is in building a successful company. This is more than marketing. This is an existential and strategic tool for those that dare to think they can change the world. Enjoy this Great Conversation. Ron Worman, The Sage Group

Charles Duhigg, author of the upcoming book Supercommunicators and conversation researcher Michael Yeomans, PhD, talk about how anyone can learn to communicate better, the best way to build rapport with someone you just met, why it's important to think about your goals in a conversation, how to have a productive conversation about a disagreement, and how technology changes conversation.
