Sobre este título
A Business English podcast episode set at a high-end London networking event where a new hire, George, freezes under pressure and nearly derails key introductions. Rob recounts early missteps, a surprising breakthrough, and a few painful moments that still sting, showing how repeated attempts build confidence in real time.
The episode dives into a practical survival approach for high-stakes small talk: focusing on curiosity over performance, avoiding confidence-killing habits, handling misunderstandings without apologising, and leaning on simple universal topics and body language to stay connected.
