Kick-Starters™ - Listen! Types of Listening

When we make a conscious effort to 'actively' listen, we can better understand people's needs, identify new opportunities, and close a sale. Sadly, most people listen just to respond. They are really listening for when the other person is going to finish, so that they can jump in with their own point of view.  Yet the more actively we listen, the more effectively we communicate overall. 

This resource helps you learn about, and identify the different types of listening that occur most often when we interact with someone. It is useful for business owners who want to improve their sales skills, and managers who want to more effectively engage their employees. If you find yourself listening in any way other than 'actively', you could be missing out on opportunities to close a sale, or retain a customer.

Use this simple guide to help you learn and think about how you use listening skills in your communication.
