Start by asking questions. Many people enjoy talking about themselves. Just ask them about their lives, interests, how they got into their line of work. Before you know it there'll be things that you can connect on and other subjects will present themselves on their own. Think of a few questions that might interest your boss before you get there. For example - He's got a picture on his desk of his family. As about them. A happily married man or a happy father is usually quite glad to share his pleasure in his family with others.
