Listening Masterclass - how to listen to what emerges in between - Part II of III

In the previous episode 127, Claire Pedrick and I discussed listening through many dimensions, including the role of pause and silence, the influence of the backstory and its impact on workplace change. Now we are at Part Two of Three, you're about to hear is the reflections from 16 different listeners who initially emailed Claire with their feedback and were open enough to agree to record their perspectives. Some were recorded on audio, and some were video.  I invite you to notice what these 16 listeners heard that was similar and different to you. What I loved exploring was listening to the wide variety of adjectives and verbs. They used to describe their insights, how they explained what they saw, and their thoughtful reflections about HOW it was said and WHAT was said.   Audio Format - S4 Episode 21: How to Listen with Oscar Trimboli  Wednesday May 01, 2024 - The Coaching Inn from 3D Coaching Video Format - S4 Episode 21: How to Listen with Oscar Trimboli  Wednesday May 01, 2024 - The Coaching Inn from 3D Coaching how to listen – fundamentals – workplace edition  

Om Podcasten

The world is a noisy place where you fight to be heard every day. Despite the fact that we have been taught at home and at school how to speak, none of us has had any training in how to listen. Multiple academic studies have shown that between 50% and 55% of your working day is spent listening, yet only 2% of people have been trained in how to listen. We feel frustrated, isolated and confused because we aren't heard. As a speaker, it takes absolutely no training to notice when someone isn't listening - they're distracted, they interrupt or drift away as you talk. Yet the opposite is also true, without any training in how to listen we struggle to stay connected with the speaker and the discussion. This results in unproductive workplaces where people fight to be heard and need to repeat themselves constantly, send emails to confirm what they said and then have follow-up meetings to ensure what was said was actually heard by those in the meeting. It's a downward spiral that drains energy from every conversation and reduces the productivity of organisations.
