Jad Abumrad: ‘How to Talk to a Human’ Patten Lecture Series

In this innovative and timely talk, Jad Abumrad explores the art of conversation. For the last year, he’s been deep diving into the art of interviewing. Not just how journalists in his industry do it, but how do therapists do it? Salespeople? Hostage negotiators? Social workers? What are the techniques we can all steal and use in our own lives when having difficult conversations with fellow humans? He will share insights, play clips, and even lead the audience through a few interactive games.
