So very true. And I've been bad at fixing the problem. I know I've been horrible at this for some time - decades, actually. So now I need to focus on fixing this. For good.
Great advice, especially working in repeating the name a couple of times during the first introduction. It's a win/win strategy - you get practice saying the name to help you remember, and they get to hear you say their name - which people love. Sometimes, with some people (usually guys) I think they use name forgetting as a power move as in, I'm more important than you, so I don't have to remember your name. Anyone else experience this?
Loved this! No excuses!

What is your name again, Daniel?
Hi Daniel, sorry for being cheeky Daniel, or do you prefer Dan, Daniel?
Ok Dan. Thanks, I won't forget that!
Thanks Daniel. What do you think? Have any routines that help you with name recall specifically?
