Just listening to your colleagues isn’t enough.
You can still be an active member of the conversation when someone is talking.
Paraphrase what they’ve said to demonstrate you’ve listened.
Reflect back the impact on them to show that you’ve truly understood.
We all like to feel listened to. And we all REALLY like feeling understood.
So when someone else is talking, demonstrate that you’re listening in your responses. And show you understand where they’re coming from.
It’ll make them feel like you care.
In turn, they’ll likely care more for you.
