Hey, Are You Listening To Me?: Listening Your Way to Professional and Personal Success

(3 customer reviews)

With clarity and humor, Rebecca Carswell opens our minds and our ears, teaching us how to develop this essential yet often over-looked skill. Her message is simple: Change the way you communicate and your life will change for the better. Most of us are never taught how to listen and communicate effectively. And perhaps even more importantly, we are never taught how necessary to our happiness and our relationships this important skill is. Rebecca tackles the habits we have of skipping out mentally during a conversation, the barriers which prevent us from truly connecting with and understanding others, and how to overcome these obstacles. “A simple, fun, and very insightful book.” -Katrina M. Mayer, Ph.D., founder of The Wholarian Vision, author of The Mustard Seed Way “Rebecca Carswell offers effective and easy-to-use tools that will empower your life. I encourage you to apply what she shares in this book.” -Sarah C. Dornin, Nano Letters, Harvard University

This book is a treasure Oct 21, 2009
This concise book is an easy read and one that I will refer to often, for business and personal reasons. If you want to be more respected and influential with others, this book will give you great help. We speak at about 125 words per minute but can listen to and comprehend about 400 words per minute, so our minds naturally wander off, often at a bigger (sometimes HUGE) price than we can imagine. The 8 barriers to listening she enumerates and offers ideas to help us with are crucial; I will use these as a checklist before and after important discussions. She also offers wonderful ideas about how to ask intelligent questions instead of offering advice, a concept that all men, including me can especially benefit from. Us men want to offer quick fixes. It's way more helpful to the other person to engage them by asking great questions instead of just making statements that may or may not be appropriate for them.
