Have you ever listened to someone, heard every word but realised later that you didn't really understand what they wanted to tell you? Or you find out later that they told you something vital, but you didn't take it in at the time? The foundation of all relationships is to show you that you are interested in what the other person says. However, most of us are not good natural listeners. But listening is a skill you can learn and practice. This course will show you how to develop six active listening micro-skills and turn them into habits. First, I'll show you how a skill becomes a habit. Then there is a short video for each skill, building on the previous one. At the end of each video, I'll ask you to practise that skill for the next 24 hours at work or in your personal life to turn them into habits. So join me, and I'll show you how to make active listening your superpower at work and in life. Incidentally, did you know that academic research found that active listeners get more second dates from speed-dating than those who mainly talk about themselves?
