  1. Today.
  2. I'm gonna talk about how to make a memorable first impression,
  3. and I'm gonna be pulling from something called the T method that I created,
  4. which stands for tech energy and aesthetics.
  5. And these are the three things you need to make that strong first impression
  6. So the first thing I want to share is that you should ask thought starter questions,
  7. things like, What are you working on that you're excited about?
  8. And what shows are you bingeing?
  9. This is going to be a better way to connect
  10. with your colleagues and move us away from the classic.
  11. How are you? Which always gets the response.
  12. That's either you know it's good or I'm good or I'm good, but really busy
  13. because this is an autopilot question.
  14. Of course you're going to get an autopilot response.
  15. Second tip I have for you is to share first you if you know
  16. you're talking to a colleague who's a little bit quieter or doesn't necessarily,
  17. uh, feel comfortable starting the conversation,
  18. you can share a little bit more about yourself first,
  19. so you might let them know that you're working on this particular project.
  20. Um, you're working from a specific location, a new location,
  21. and usually when you can share first, it gives them a jumping off point, and
  22. it avoids you, leaving it up to them to come up with conversation.
  23. When you can take the, uh, take the lead
  24. And lastly, I suggest, um,
  25. making an observation any time you see something
  26. interesting in your colleagues or clients or partners,
  27. um, video background,
  28. you might see, um, interesting artwork in the back.
  29. And you might ask them, you know, how they chose that piece of art you might see.
  30. Be a fun bobblehead in the background, which is something I have seen before.
  31. Uh, maybe some fun wallpaper. So make sure to call it out. Don't keep it to yourself.
  32. People like sharing.
  33. And especially when it has something to do with,
  34. um something that's important to them.
  35. It's always good to ask them and to get to know them a little bit better through that.
