Munk Dialogue with David Brooks
Munk Dialogue with David Brooks
How to Know a Person
New York Times columnist and bestselling author David Brooks is a cultural commentator and astute observer of social trends and behavior. He believes that our society is fractured, and the number of people who report feeling isolated, alone, and invisible is higher than at any time in recent memory.
David joins us to talk about his new book coming out this fall, How to Talk to Strangers, which offers a practical guide to help people truly get to know each other in order to foster deeper connections at home, at work, and in their communities.
“The essence of seeing another, no matter what your education level is, is asking them a question. And to do this skill, you have just to get really good at conversation. You have to be exceptional at knowing how to listen really well and respond really well.”
-DAVID BROOKS
