In this episode of Mike’s Up Marchev I will be sharing an observation I’ve had for many years and one that resurfaced last week at a travel conference in Nashville, TN.
I refer to this as one upmanship, and I think it is a reminder for everyone, whether they are involved in the travel industry or not.
The formula I am sharing suggests that in order to be considered an interesting person, all it takes is for you to become interested in the other person’s story. This may come across as a blinding flash of the obvious, but it has been my observation over many years that few people have mastered this relationship building technique.
I think you will soon understand what I’m talking about, and hopefully, as a result of today’s episode, you will soon become a more interesting person.
