Communication – Listening Skills

Four ideas to increase your ability to listen effectively:

  1. Paraphrase to demonstrate your listening. “If I understand you correctly…. “ then allow the speaker to confirm your understanding or offer clarification.
  2. Demonstrate empathy.
  3. Keep an open mind.  You can’t learn less; the opportunity for more is always present.
  4. Listen for intent as well as content.   Explore beyond the words spoken by probing for the real meaning.
