Listening is crucial in so many interactions in day-to-day life. Whether that’s speaking with a client, colleague or customer, the way that people listen to each other plays a key role in shaping conversation outcomes. We give out a lot of information when we speak – far more than we realise. Learning how to effectively listen to and process this information can give team members an advantage in their working relationships, no matter what their role is. But what is the best way to listen that allows us to gain the most from our interactions with others?
The workshop will dive into the practical skills needed to listen more effectively. Participants will explore the different levels of listening and the different filters that they may consciously or unconsciously apply when listening to others.
They consider the challenges of listening and gain some top tips on how to best overcome them. A large part of listening is often gathering information, so the workshop will focus on questioning skills, helping participants discover how to dig deeper into conversations and understand what their partner is really saying, therefore gaining the most from the interaction.
The workshop will also discuss the importance of adapting listening skills for different situations- for example a personal situation within the workplace vs when speaking to a customer.
