Click with Ease: 33 Ways to Instant Rapport and Effortless Connection

I am very excited to share this upcoming book! This came about after a very successful run of "Click with Ease" workshops. I designed it in 2013 when I attended the very first "Train the Clean Trainer" workshop in Tattingstone, UK. I then ran the workshops in Australia and USA.

Chances are, you already clicked with someone. You already know what it’s like to just naturally and effortlessly connect with someone you just met. Think about a time in your past: when you met your partner perhaps? Your best friend? Or maybe you just clicked with someone you randomly met at the pub, the bar, the gym, in the train, the airport, the café… How does that feel? What happens when you click with someone you just met? Is it something that simply happens by chance or by choice.

When we go to school we meet new classmates and new teachers. When we go to work, we meet new colleagues, teams, customers and supervisors. As we reach adulthood, we forge new social and romantic relationships. We establish a new home and meet new neighbors. We integrate ourselves with new associations in our community. When we shop for our day to day needs: we meet for the first time our hairdresser, travel agent, the dentist, doctor, lawyer, accountant, supplier, etc. We strike a conversation with the waitress. We talk to the librarian. Then one day, we decide to travel and our world explodes into new network of relationships – communities we have never come across, people from different cultures. We meet more new people and discover new ways of relating. All. The. Time. Anywhere.

This book is for you if…

• You are tired of being tongue-tied when meeting new people.
• You want to be excited instead of nervous and anxious in front of strangers.
• You want to be more confident instead of feeling shy or awkward.
• You want to be calm instead of stressed.
• You want simple, easy-to-do ways to effortlessly break the ice.
• You want to get better at getting to know people.
• You want to establish rapport even with people you don’t necessarily like (Because let’s face it, sometimes you just need others to get things done!)
• YOU MOVE A LOT. You happen to have a job that requires you to keep travelling, or you simply love it as a lifestyle, or you are a migrant… meeting new people and forging new relationships is inevitable.

When you apply “Click with Ease”…

• Connecting to new people becomes more enjoyable and natural.
• Magical moments of clicking happen more often.
• More serendipities and synchronicities with strangers begin to happen.
• Social situations flow as you choose, simply by being your best, natural self.
