Small Talk Is NOT Small, book cover by Cara Cunniff
Coming soon

Small Talk Isn't Small.

The new rules for modern workplace connection.

Why small moments decide who connects, gets trusted and belongs, and how to get better at the ones that matter. Built on The Small Moments Effect, and delivered live as the Small Talk Is NOT Small keynote.

The real cost of avoiding small talk is not the awkward moment. It is everything on the other side of the conversation you did not have:

  • The colleague you never knew.
  • The introduction that never happened.
  • The relationship that never began.

Why human connection becomes more valuable, not less, as work gets faster, noisier and more digital.
