Today I am joined by Dr. David Nehring to talk about Active Listening Skills. This is a simple formula that will build Critical Thinking Skills, as it requires attention to detail, empathy and understanding feelings, as well as empathy and compassion.
As you sit with someone to really listen to them by using Active Listening Skills:
Given what I am feeling and wanting, can I set that aside long enough to hear the other person?
Both sides probably need to go back and forth a few times before everyone is sufficiently heard.
The Goal is for the other person to hear you hearing them, see you seeing them, experience you experiencing them.
