Most men are worse at conversation than they think - and no one has ever told them.
They wait to speak instead of listening. They answer a question instead of asking the next one. They leave a room badly, or never quite leave at all. None of this is a character flaw. It is a skill no one taught them.
The Gentleman's Conversation Code is a practical self-improvement guide for men who want to become better listeners, sharper storytellers, calmer speakers, and more memorable company.
Across fourteen chapters, Mario Inmatico gives men a clear code for real conversation:
- The four levels of listening - and how to reach the fourth
- The art of the second question, the small move that changes everything
- How to tell a story without performing
- How to begin conversations without sounding rehearsed
- How to hold a room without dominating it
- How to leave gracefully, handle silence, and navigate difficult conversations
- A twenty-eight-day programme to turn better conversation into habit
This revised and expanded second edition adds research-backed principles, examples from great conversationalists, and practical exercises designed for work, dating, friendship, family, and everyday life.
Listen better. Ask the second question. Become a man worth talking to.
