<Agenda> How to get someone hooked on you at the first contact
A lot of people have been staying home for the last couple of months. But sooner or later, the restrictions will be lifted, and we can get back to normal lives. After that, some of you might move to a different place, putting yourself into a new environment, while others might welcome new people to your community. In either case, you will have some opportunities to interact with people you’ve never talked with before.
In that situation, it is better if you can give them a great impression so that you can establish good relationships with them. However, it is not easy to make it happen all the time. I’m sure you also have met many people, including those whom you got fascinating impression on, you got zero feelings toward, and you had negative images on. Of course, those impressions could be changed later, though.
I would appreciate it if you could share as many ideas as possible based on your own experiences in order to find out useful techniques that we can use when talking with people we meet for the first time.
*Note: If everyone talks about their stories in both Q.2 & 3, your group might not have enough time to discuss the last question. So the chairperson should be careful about time management.
[Discussion Questions]

Q.4 Based on your discussion, what are important elements to make a great impression when you communicate with someone for the first time? Choose a couple of elements and prepare to share the ideas in the main session (whole group) at 7:10 pm.
