12、ert,you might find that your first few conversations go one of two ways.Either theyll seem to get bored and not say much or theyll seem to skate over small talk in favor of more in-depth topics.What you need to know is that the introvert is not being rude.Its just that they dont like small talk.Here

13、s why.Small talk serves as a gateway toward deeper conversation.Some introverts dont realize that small talk will actually help them get to the bigger topics.You dont need to stay on small talk forever.However,sometimes introverts feel that even the short amount of time it takes to get into the real

14、 conversation is a waste of time.Small talk is very fast.Someone says something and this should be followed up with a quick response.But introverts like to chew on their words before saying them aloud.Before they answer,theyll mull over different thoughts.Small talk by its very nature invites more p

15、eople to join in.The more people who join the conversation,the more the introvert will tend to step back.As a result,theyll be quiet.Small talk is about throwing out subjects in the hope that one or more of them can be turned into a common point of interest.The listening involved with small talk is

16、not in-depth.The purpose is about listening lightly so you can figure out the right topics to spend some time on.Introverts tend to be great listeners,but they use active listening rather than light listening.This makes them wonderful friends,but can also make it difficult for new people to understa

21、 the schemes success,”Leigh says,“is how happy our employees now are.”The average British worker takes only a 34 minute lunch break and works 10 hours overtime each week(more often than not this is unpaid).Yet UK productivity falls seriously behind their European neighbors,who tend to work fewer hou
