Episode 70 - Asking Questions Revisited

Dr. Ray Husband passed over to the other side on a crisp Tuesday morning during the last few days of November.  This final podcast is a tribute to him. It involves 15 of his dearest friends having a poignant conversation about him as a way of commemorating his life.  His passing  left a hole in our world.

This episode continues, refines and summarizes our our thoughts on interpersonal communication conflict.

Regretfully, Ray has been quite sick these past few months.  So, we've decided to replay some of our previous episodes until he gets back to the mic.  This one is the beginning of series we did on conflict early in the podcast.  Enjoy. Again.

Ray and Bob continue to respond to the request on give us some more of that stuff on feedback.  Here it is!

We've recently received some requests to review our conversation on feedback.  So, here it is again.  Enjoy!

We think listening is such an important skill that if we are going to replay any episodes while we are away, they need to at least start with those on listening.

Bob and Ray return to one of their earliest episodes to remind us of how important it is to ask great questions and how we can develop the skill to ask them.

Bob and Ray try to work through some very interesting, but difficult nonverbal behaviors to get a hold of.  it's fun stuff and it can really change how you come across to others.  We are even going to attach a transcript/worksheet for the first time.

Ray and Bob explore the nonverbal behavior of touching.  Should you do it in this day and age? Absolutely!  But how and to what end is the key. Thank you, Ruth, for showing us the way.

The twins go back and summarize proxemics with an interesting story on when conflict is initiated in different cultures. They also reclaim how important it is to maintain level eye contact with the other person in conversation.  Finally, they tell a couple of favorite stories about working with cruise ship captains who violate good nonverbal communication principles.
