Listening is a leadership skill

Huh?

Listening well can improve both your performance and the the way your team performs, but it’s a big challenge in leadership – especially in today’s world.

In this episode, Mike, Shaun and David discuss those challenges, how not being heard is a both a human and a business problem, and ways to overcome our habits and the influence of technology and remote work.

Quotable:

SP: “There’s nothing worse than trying to give energy away to a blank computer screen.”

DF: “It takes humility for a senior person to receive a new idea from a junior person and give it weight within the organization.”

MM: “A lot of times we are hearing with our ears but we are not listening.”
