    Julie reflects on the importance of listening and shares personal experiences of interrupting others during conversations, looking at different types and levels of listening, emphasising the need for active and deep listening to truly understand and connect with others. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Listening is a crucial skill for conscious leaders and effective communication. It allows us to understand the needs and perspectives of others, facilitate collaboration, and challenge the status quo.
    • There are different types and levels of listening, including cosmetic listening (superficial), conversational listening (grasping basic points), active listening (fully engaged), and deep listening (profound understanding of both verbal and non-verbal cues).
    • Interrupting others during conversations can be a result of impatience, excitement, lack of active listening skills, the desire to be in control or dominant, competitiveness, cultural norms, lack of awareness, anxiety, or the intention to help.
    • Developing self-awareness and creating a supportive environment are important steps in improving listening skills. Giving full attention, seeking clarification, suspending judgment, and providing feedback (with permission) are key practices for effective listening.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "I have found myself twice this week interrupting people that are talking and wanting to get my point of view across before they had finished, which I have to admit is really unlike me."

    "In my world, they were too elaborate in their description of what they were talking about, which in my world was un-required." 

    "When we are in conflict, our communication style for most of us changes… I just wanted to stop him, stop him talking to get my point of view across because I knew the answer." 

    "If people are doing that to us, let's us not do that to them… How do you feel when people don't listen to you? It's not a good feeling, is it?"

    I have worked with the public, the private and the entrepreneurial sectors of the market. The Leadership messages are the same across the sectors – the application may be different but all are Business’ where Conscious and Principled Leadership reaps rewards for all parties concerned.
    I work with the human element of Business and my passion is enabling others to be the best they can be through providing them with the information they need to be more effective than they currently are. Unleashing potential and providing knowledge enabling the best decisions to be made for the Business, the Employee, the Leader (themselves), their families and the greater social economy.
