Let’s be frank. We can listen better. That can be difficult when we’re genetically coded to be distracted and the world is full of notifications. If we can listen better to current/future clients, colleagues, employees, and bosses – the benefits are business-changing. This episode explains why we get distracted, uncovers bad listening habits, and offers practical solutions. You’ll find out how to have shorter, more effective meetings. You’ll learn what your ‘Listening Villain’ is and how it’s impacting your workplace. You’ll learn about the ‘Five Levels of Listening.’ There’s so much to think about in this episode, you’ll be pausing or listening to it twice. Join author and global listening expert Oscar Trimboli as he explains the art of listening and the consequences of doing it badly, to Gillian Bowen.

From Oscar:

Why complete the Listening Quiz?

Consider this:

  • Everyone can see in colour, yet we all listen in monochrome.​
  • You spend 55% of your day listening, yet only 2% of people know how to listen.​
  • The Cost of Not Listening is confusion, conflict, and chaos.​
