Listening Part 3 - The Highest Levels

Listening at the Highest Level Every Time - We all need diverse opinions and viewpoints. When you listen from the lower levels of listening, which is not really listening at all, you miss out on so much, from critical information and feedback, to a chance to develop rapport with your team, a loved one, or even a total stranger. The most effective leaders all excel at listening from the highest level. They make people feel valued, respected, and understood. They are also always honing their skills and becoming better listeners. They continually work on opening their mind, heart, and will. It’s a continual process of evolution. They are present and focused on whatever or whomever is in front of them. Meaningfully listening to those around you enables you to elevate yourself as a leader, build trust and rapport, and empower the people you’re listening to. Evolving your leadership and achieving optimal results begins with listening.

Book Excerpt

Ignite Culture

Attentive Listening—when the listener is engaged and evaluates the information being spoken in order to determine whether they agree or disagree. The listener is also assessing how the information applies to them.
Active or Empathetic Listening—when the listener is fully present and focused on the speaker’s words and what those words mean not only to them but to the speaker. The listener is giving their whole being to the conversation. This is the highest and most meaningful level of listening.

As you master the art of being fully present, you might notice that you’re becoming a more active, more empathetic listener. You’re fully tuned into your people. You hear and remember what they say. You begin to sense what’s behind their words and what’s driving them to speak and behave in certain ways. This will allow you to operate from a higher level as a leader—more intuitively. Over time, and with consistent and ongoing practice, this fundamental shift toward complete presence begins to transform your life, your leadership, and your business. Be present for yourself. Be present for your people. You need them and they need you—all of you—in the room.
