Ah, the dreaded "communication skills" question. I've had trouble with all the variations of "small talk", chit-chat", "water cooler chin wags" on and on.
I've worked almost fifty years in a profession where communication is important, was I good at it, hell no… I'm Autistic L1 (low functioning Asperges), so, I had to look at others who I thought did it well and mimic them. Am I good at it now? Not really, I find it difficult to follow the "threads" of the 'social' topics, and when it gets technical, I tend to over share, dive to deep. So, a real thrill at parties (bad joke).
My only suggestion would be to find a mentor who can give tips and ideas on how to be better at it.
It may be a tough road…
Keep trying…
Stay the course…
Best of Fortunes.
