24 分钟Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, she's tackling topics that affect her own life, like stress, perfectionism, and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.
At the end of the day, communication is all about connection.
Connecting our ideas, connecting to other people, connecting to a higher purpose, like an organization's mission or vision.
But how do we do this connecting?
Mostly it's through conversation.
Join me today as I have a conversation about conversations.
My name is Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
Welcome to think fast, talk smart, the podcast.
I am super excited today to speak with Alison Wood Brooks.
Allison is the O'Brien associate professor of business administration and Hellman faculty fellow at Harvard Business School.
Alison's research focuses on the science of conversation and interaction, and she teaches an award winning course called talk.
Welcome, Alison.
I am so excited that we're actually getting to do this.
Hi Matt.
Thank you so much for reaching out to an east coast friend.
