The Gentleman's Conversation Code: Listening, Storytelling, Exiting Gracefully, and the Art of the Second Question (The Modern Gentleman’s Code Book 2)
By Mario Inmatico
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.
