Basic Knowledge

Why Conversation Topics Don't Come to Mind

Most of the time, it's not that you don't know the topic—it's that you can't recall it on the spot. The pressure of silence makes recall even harder. Simply having one topic suggested from outside makes it easier for associations to expand from there.

What Is an Icebreaker?

An icebreaker is a brief conversation or activity used to ease tension at the start of a meeting or when people first meet. Using one before moving into the main agenda is said to lower the barrier to speaking up.
