Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:This episode of Business Growth Architect Show takes on communication. Especially in the age of bad LinkedIn pitches we were looking for a guest to share best practices around making meaningful connections. Meet Jake Stahl who designed a principle he calls the 2/10 rule," which serves as a guiding framework for effective communication and engagement in conversations. Jake emphasizes the power of the 2/10 rule to maintain interaction and elicit responses from conversational partners every two minutes. Additionally, Stahl underscored the importance of periodically reviewing and summarizing the dialogue after every 10 minutes to ensure clarity and understanding between participants. By adhering to the 2/10 rule, you can enhance the quality of your conversations, foster meaningful exchanges, and avoid potential pitfalls of passive communication.Then we moved to exploring strategies for initiating conversations in a manner that captures the interest and attention of the other party. Stahl gave insights into approaching interactions with authenticity and a genuine curiosity about their perspective and experiences. By showing a sincere interest in the other person, asking thoughtful questions, and actively listening, you can lay the groundwork for engaging and fruitful dialogues. Focus on the other person in the first few minutes of a conversation, refrain from self-centered monologues, and instead, prioritize understanding, connection and rapport. Creating a positive and engaging atmosphere from the outset as it sets the stage for productive communication and meaningful exchanges.Resources Mentioned:Jake Stahl: Website | LinkedIn_____________________We appreciate you, thank you for listening.
