A Good Listener Listens Slowly to What Is Being Said Edward de Bono

A good listener listens slowly to what is being said. He does not jump ahead nor does he rush to judge nor does he sit there formulating his own reply. He focuses directly on what is being said. He listens to more than is being said. He extracts the maximum information from what he hears by looking between the words used and wondering why … | Edward de Bono Continue reading A Good Listener Listens Slowly to What Is Being Said Edward de Bono

We Need to Start Talking and Listening Jordan Peterson

And so we need to start talking and listening. And when you talk it doesn’t mean you’re right. It doesn’t mean you’re correct. Right?

You are full of biases, and … | Jordan Peterson Continue reading We Need to Start Talking and Listening Jordan Peterson

The True Leader in a Group Is Rarely the Person Who Talks the Most Adam Grant

The true leader in a group is rarely the person who talks the most. It’s usually the person who listens best. Listening is more than hearing what’s said. It’s noticing and surfacing what isn’t said. Inviting dissenting views and amplifying quiet voices are acts of leadership. Credit: Adam Grant Comment: Conversational Leadership is about creating … Continue reading The True Leader in a Group Is Rarely the Person Who Talks the Most Adam Grant

The Great Unheard at Work: Understanding Voice and Silence in Organisations Mark Cole and John Higgins (2023)

The Great Unheard at Work by Mark Cole and John Higgins makes the case that silence always has something to say – it’s never neutral and speaks volumes if people are willing to hear.

Instead, silence needs to … Continue reading The Great Unheard at Work: Understanding Voice and Silence in Organisations Mark Cole and John Higgins (2023)

Listening to others’ verbalized experiences stimulates memories, ideas, and experiences in participants. This is also known as the group effect where group members engage in “a kind of ‘chaining’ or ‘cascading’ effect; talk links to, or tumbles out of, the topics and expressions preceding it” | Thomas R. Lindlof and Bryan C. Taylor Continue reading Listening to Others’ Experiences Stimulates Memories and Ideas Thomas Lindlof and Bryan Taylor
