“Lunch and Learn” Tuesday, March 5th at 12:00 pm EST
- Over 70% of small businesses claim “ineffective communication” is their primary problem
- The average company spends 17.5 hours of the workweek clarifying misunderstandings
- Miscommunication costs SMBs with 100 employees $529,569 annually due to lost productivity
This free webinar will debunk the myth that listening is a “soft skill.”In fact, numerous studies show that there is a huge cost to poor listening resulting in decreased profits, wasted resources, rework, higher supervision costs, and poor engagement.
The latest scientific research that suggests that listening is a trainable skill with applications far beyond the old notion of simply paying better attention or utilizing “active listening.” Listening is a brain-based function, and no two brains are the same. This is why highly competent people can leave a meeting, all with very different takeaways from what was said.
With an increased awareness of their unique listening habits, leaders can flex to increase effectiveness and address opportunities to improve communication and the sharing of information throughout all levels of the organization.
In this session you will learn:
- The four primary Listening Habits identified by scientific research.
- How our preferences determine what we tend to listen “to” and “for,” and what we may unintentionally filter out or miss in conversation.
- How Listening Intelligence can help organizations harness and leverage the cognitive diversity of its workforce, improving collaboration and innovation.
- A framework for developing Listening Intelligence and practicing effective communication across all levels of an organization.
