What do you like to do when you aren’t working?
Best relationship building question…EVER!
Flip the script at the next cocktail party you attend. Ask this question instead of the old standard, “so, what do you do?” Then listen. Really listen. You’ll be the hit of the party and walk away with more meaningful connections and shared understanding about what truly matters.
It is a powerful question for Recruiters, Sales Professionals, Managers, Leaders, Coaches and Consultants whose work depends on relationships, understanding, likability and connectedness.
So, what do you like to do when you aren’t working?

That is a great question. Reminds me of one of my favorite t-shirts: Never confuse having a career with having a life.
