What’s going on when we are in auto-pilot and how does this affect our capacity to listen and understand? Great listening skills make for better interactions with colleagues, clients and other stakeholders. Developing this undervalued and underutilised skill will contribute to more effective and persuasive communication skills.
Key takeaways:
- Shifting from auto-pilot to aware
- Mindful Listening: paying attention and how to do this
- Engaged Listening: listening to understand and connect
- Tips for more Mindful Conversations in the office
