Improving Your Listening Skills

Think about a time at work when you needed someone to really listen to you, and yet you left the conversation feeling unheard and frustrated. Or on the other hand, think of a time when someone truly went out of their way to listen to you and it had a lasting, profound impact.

The truth is, most of us don’t realize how much time we actually spend listening at work or how much information we distort and ignore in just about every conversation we have. On the other hand, teams and organizations that are nimble, coordinated, and well-oiled are filled with people who consistently listen to and understand each other on a deep level.

Improving Your Listening Skills is designed to help people understand their priorities and biases in a conversation, the unspoken messages they send to others when listening, and all of the information they might be missing without ever realizing it. Further, participants are given the practice they need to hone their skills in five distinct listening approaches and internalize the situations that call for each. And ultimately, people come away with the communication skills they need to build more synchronized, productive relationships.

• Recognize the importance of developing good listening skills by reflecting on their past listening experiences
