Active Listening: Techniques for Effective Leadership!
Course Description
Do you struggle to understand people’s perspectives and opinions, no matter how much effort they put into trying to explain them to you? Or perhaps you have been on the other side, where no matter what words you use, they don’t seem to deliver in the manner you want them to. It’s almost like people just don’t seem to truly hear you.
Most of us think that we know how to listen, but do we really get what people mean to say when they speak? This applies to both the words they speak out loud and the ones they don’t. Active listening helps you go beyond surface level small talk and to obtain a meaningful understanding of people. This course will be your guide to this life skill.
This course will change how you communicate forever. We’re going to dive into understanding and applying the techniques that encourage deeper connections and strengthen the understanding in your relationships. And don’t worry, because we’ll be starting from the absolute basics, and guiding you every step of the way to improve your listening skills, and help you transform your life for the better.
We’ll begin by disassembling the internal and external barriers that prevent you from being a good active listener. You’ll also learn how to recognize your communication patterns and how they may be an obstacle in gaining a deeper understanding. While you will learn the basics of active listening, such as decoding body language and building genuine empathy, we will also simulate challenging scenarios such as handling emotionally charged conversations, understanding how to navigate conflict, and how to reach resolutions that everyone is content with.
After equipping you with a full active listening toolkit, we’ll explore the impacts of this skill in all areas of your life. This isn’t just for others, but it’s also for you! Refining this skill will deepen your self awareness, teaching you how to attentively listen to your own inner voice as well – which perhaps is the most important voice to listen to.
Whether you’re looking to refine your already developed skills, or completely new to the concept of active listening, this course will empower you and aid you in building more meaningful connections in your life.
