Default two questions

1.Here is an exercise for jump-starting communication skills.
What does “jump-starting” mean?
2.One of you begins by talking about something that really matters to you. It doesn’t have to be a red-button issue.
What does “red-button” mean?

Default Re: two questions

Jump-start: start or re-start vigorously

Red-button issue: a topic which elicits strong response from the interlocutors; a controversial topic
