Learning to Listen A Quick Guide to Empathetic Understanding
By Chloe Tseung, David Colby Reed, and Lee-Sean Huang
It sounds elementary, but even us grown-ups need an occasional refresher course on how to listen, how to REALLY listen. !
Listening is an essential part of being a good friend, colleague, lover, designer, manager, and PERSON. !
It’s a prerequisite for empathy, creativity, and collaboration.
“The most basic of all human needs is
the need to understand and be understood.
The best way to understand people is to
listen to them.” !!!
Dr. Ralph Nichols, Co-Author of Are you listening?
“Most people do not listen with
the intent to understand;
they listen with the intent to reply.”
!
