Listening is only the start of effective communication.
If you want to foster greater understanding, you need to demonstrate you’re listening AND you hear what’s being said.
Here are 2 essential and foundational techniques to add to your toolkit:
1️⃣ Open-Ended questioning.
Ask questions that encourage the other person to elaborate and provide more details. These can further enrich the conversation and provide insight into the speaker's perspective.
Examples:
"Tell me more about that..."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Can you share an example of that?"
"What do you think about…?"
2️⃣ Reflection
Restate what the other person has said in your own words, and check you've understood their message correctly.
Examples:
“I hear you saying [_____]. Is that the case?"
“It sounds like [_____]. Is that right?”
“So, you feel [_____]. Did I understand correctly?”
“The thing you want the most is [_____]. Is that right?"
By incorporating these techniques into your conversations, you can demonstrate your interest in the other person’s perspective and build stronger relationships based on mutual understanding.

Are you sabotaging your own productivity? You might be slowing yourself down without even realising it…
If you're tired of feeling like you're constantly chasing your to-do list and struggling to get everything done, it's time to take a closer look at your productivity habits.
In this issue of #CareerClarity, I'm sharing three things you need to STOP doing in order to supercharge your productivity and achieve your goals faster:
(1) STOP saying “Yes" to everything, and 3 questions to help you make space for what's most important,
(2) STOP measuring time only, and how to shift your focus to results for better outcomes, and
(3) STOP working (counterintuitive, I know!), and how to capitalise on your brain’s hardwired capacity for creativity when the work stops.
