MODERATORS
Another tip is if somebody says something, do not necessarily come back with a topical response, sometimes just repeat exactly what they just said flatly and wait for them.
This shows you are listening and creates a nanosecond of validation. And instead of filling the gap in conversation with your response, you give them a chance to expand their thoughts.
Wonderfully put, this is an excellent tip.
