Description

Talking and listening make up two of the most important skills in verbal communication. In one famous parable, it's been stated that we were given two ears and one mouth for a certain reason. Statistics imply that the ability of the general population to listen with concentration and understanding is at the 10% level, while executives and top-level CEOs have a level of 25%. Do you think that a level of 25% is adequate enough?

As a prerequisite, listening skills support a correct understanding of the other person's position, assist in navigating through disagreements and help to maintain successful negotiations. Developing an effective listening skill-set improves relationships with others, enhances professional competence when working with clients and develops an ability to grasp the motives of what has been said.
