Description: Join us for an engaging and interactive lecture that explores the art of in-person communication and its profound impact on our personal and professional lives. In this dynamic session, we will delve into the essential skills, strategies, and insights necessary to navigate face-to-face interactions with confidence and effectiveness. In an increasingly digital age, the ability to connect with others in person remains a cornerstone of successful relationships, collaborations, and personal growth. This lecture aims to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the key elements that contribute to effective in-person communication. During this enlightening session, we will cover the following topics: 1. Active Listening: Listening is a fundamental aspect of communication, yet it is often overlooked. We will explore the art of active listening, which involves attentive focus, empathy, and understanding. Participants will learn practical techniques to enhance their listening skills and foster deeper connections. 2. Non-Verbal Communication: Body language, facial expressions, and gestures play a crucial role in conveying messages and establishing rapport. We will examine the nuances of non-verbal communication and offer insights into how to utilize it effectively to enhance understanding and build trust. 3. Verbal Communication: From articulating ideas clearly to adapting communication styles to suit different audiences, we will explore the components of effective verbal communication. Participants will gain practical tips on expressing themselves confidently, persuasively, and with clarity. 4. Emotional Intelligence: Understanding and managing emotions is paramount in establishing meaningful connections. We will delve into the concept of emotional intelligence, equipping participants with strategies to recognize and regulate their own emotions while empathizing with others. 5. Conflict Resolution: Conflicts are an inevitable part of human interactions. We will discuss techniques for navigating conflicts in a constructive and respectful manner, fostering cooperation, and finding mutually beneficial solutions. 6. Building Rapport and Connection: Creating a genuine connection is essential for fostering trust and collaboration. We will explore strategies for building rapport, including building common ground, demonstrating empathy, and creating a positive and supportive atmosphere. 7. Overcoming Communication Barriers: Language barriers, cultural differences, and diverse perspectives can pose challenges in communication. We will provide insights into overcoming these barriers, fostering inclusivity, and promoting effective cross-cultural communication. Through interactive exercises, role-playing, and real-life examples, participants will have the opportunity to practice and refine their in-person communication skills. They will leave the lecture with increased self-awareness, enhanced interpersonal skills, and the confidence to engage in meaningful, impactful conversations. Note: This lecture is open to individuals from all walks of life, including professionals, students, and anyone interested in improving their in-person communication skills. No prior experience or expertise is required. Join us for an engaging session that will transform your ability to connect, collaborate, and thrive in face-to-face interactions.

**ADAM THOMASON:** is a Michelin-trained chef who worked at Noma for 3 years and also at Sat Bains in Nottingham. In October 2017, Adam picked up two culinary accolades, taking second place in Craft Guild of Chefs’ National Chef of the Year for the second year in succession. He was also awarded a prestigious Master of Culinary Arts (MCA) by the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts. **FOOD:** Adam is offering a fabulous tasting menu for £110 for us to enjoy at his home in Streatham Hill. There is no menu yet as Adam will decide what to cook in the week depending on what is fresh and available at the time. The meal will start with some delicious canapes (see the photo of a previous event), home made breads and butters, and then there will be several further scrumptious courses! Having eaten his food on several previous occasions I can guarantee that it will be a gastronomic feast of Michelin Starred quality. Adam also matches the food to my wine selections! **DIETARY ISSUES:** This event is suited to 'flexible' diners, however if you have any allergies or dietary requirements please mention these when you RSVP so that I can let Adam know. If you do not mention any allergies in your RSVP, the menu cannot be changed on the night. **WINES:** Adam includes a glass of sparkling wine as a welcome drink. To complement the high quality food, I will take 2 bottles each of 2 white and 2 red wines, 2 x 50cl bottles of a dessert wine, and a bottle of port, all with an average retail price of £25 per bottle. So over the whole evening there will be a bottle of fine wine per head. **The 'ticket price' for this event is £145 which includes:** Adam's tasting menu and a welcome glass of sparkling wine The selection of fine wines I will take Transport of wines to the event With this quality of food and wine, you would pay at least double this amount in a Michelin starred restaurant!

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
