Active Listening 4 (SkillLab)

SESSION FOLLOW UP

Sharing to Be Heard

In our exploration of “earning listenership” for ourselves, we dove into the essential difference of story from narrative. Building on this, we learned to ground our telling in both active and constructive language.

HOMEWORK

Build Your Listenership

What's your Active / Constructive scenario?
1. Play out a real-world example, from work or home life.
  - Start your role-play story in any quadrant, and then complete the others, to help reinforce your understanding of Active & Constructive listening.
  - Bonus! - Teach this quadrant to someone else.
Practice your "I Statements"

This can be harder than it looks to really sound authentic. Begin in a place of positive intent!

Remember, it’s a muscle.
It might help to reword a recent reply of yours that didn’t go so well. Actually write it down and rewrite, using the frame!
