Daily Leader Tip: Listening Skills

Listen to understand, not to respond.

Big difference.

Actively listening is a big skill and is often underrated.

When you actively listen you’ll hear what is being said as well as what is not being said.

It’s tricky to quantify so very few do it well.

When we’re eagerly waiting to respond we quite often have stopped actively listening.

If we’re not actively listening then we’re not observing what verbal and non-verbal messages are being shared with us.Remember: By listening attentively with all distractions removed and 100% of your focus on the individual, you’ll hear what is being said as well as what is not being said.Try it.
