The Speaker Exchange: Mastering the Art of Listening
About This Workshop
When people think of improving their communication skills, the focus is typically on what to say and how to say it. But what if the most powerful tool is actually how well you listen? Effective listening provides a safe space for individuals or audiences to express their thoughts and feelings, and creates the opportunity to be genuinely heard. It is a foundational skill for building rapport and forging deeper connections.
