Name Memory Techniques

“Remember that a person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language.”
- Dale Carnegie

No single action conveys the message "you're important" as effectively as remembering another person's name.

Here are some steps you might take to help ensure name recollection:
  1. Hear and understand the name
  2. Create a mind picture linking the name with the person
  3. Add details about the person to the mind picture
  4. Repeat the name in conversation
