Everyone hears, but few listen.
Active listening is the key to increasing leadership equity, unlocking employee retention, increasing workplace efficiency, and so much more!
What was once considered an innate ability (a trait everyone was born with) has now become a specialized skill; something that takes effort, practice, and intentionality.
Did you know there are four components to active listening? Furthermore, did you know that missing one of the four components means you’re not listening?
“Have you ever noticed how the most intriguing individual in the room seems content to listen sooner than speak?” ~ Richelle E. Goodrich

Instructor
PROFESSIONAL: Hi! I’m Everett Bowes, Founder of 22 To Guru. I’m proud to be a Top Instructor on a number of mainstream teaching platforms, with over 85,000 students worldwide, and over 24,000 reviews (and counting)!
I have more than 25 years of experience as a leader in the fields of Brand Strategy, Creative Direction, Marketing, Social Media, Business, Leadership, Communications, and more. This unique combination of professional experience helps me produce impactful, efficient learning modules and resources on a number of different topics.
TEACHING: My teaching style is very conversational and approachable. I avoid using technical-jargon and buzzwords that make other teachers feel self-important while running the risk of confusing their students. I tend to speak relatively quickly, but that’s because I want to maximize the time my students are investing in their learning. I also like to use unique analogies, metaphors, and stories to underscore key learning points, and to help students recall and apply the learning to their everyday life.
PERSONAL: When I’m not working I enjoy running, exploring mountains & trails, traveling with my family, and doing just about anything at the ocean. I also like reading, listening to music, watching movies, and exploring technology.
