How good are your Listening Skills in a world full of noise, chatter, and information overload?<\/p>\n

Listening is key to all effective communication and to avoid misunderstandings and potential frustrations. “Listening” is so much more than “Hearing”.<\/p>\n

Effective listening is characterized as an active process (hence “Active Listening”); meaning we pay attention not only to what is being said, but also to how it is told. Therefore, being aware of both verbal and non-verbal messages. The listener should be an active and fully engaged participant in the communication process, like the speaker themself.<\/p>\n

Based on my observations and coachings, great listeners do the following:<\/strong>
\n> They approach every communication with an open mind and the curiosity to learn
\n> They don’t talk when others speak
\n> They actively engage with an adequate body posture and facial expressions
\n> They repeat (once in a while) what others have said<\/p>\n

What do you do to hone and improve your (active) listening skills?<\/p>\n

If you want to learn more about active listening and improved organizational communication as part of a systematic coaching process, you might enjoy my new book “ETABLIERUNG EINER COACHING KULTUR<\/strong><\/a>“.<\/p>\n

Kind regards,<\/p>\n
