Ever wonder how to make a conversation not just good, but great? You know, the kind of conversation that leaves both parties feeling uplifted and valued? That was my dinner with an old friend recently, and it got me thinking about a nifty acronym I learned a while back—F.O.R.M. We talked about our Families, Occupations, Recreation, and what Motivates us.
