Want to have a deeper connection with your audience? How about your friends & family… yes please! Did you know there isn’t a problem that can’t be solved with a little more listening… yet typically this is one of our lesser developed communication skills.

Communication isn’t just about what you say, it is 50% speaking and 50% listening. Most programs about effective communication focus on speaking with influence and leading change by setting a compelling vision, yet over 93% of change initiatives fail. There is a missing ingredient – leaders who listen. 

Only 2% of leaders have ever received any training on how to listen. 

We tackle how we can get better at listening with today’s guest, Deep Listening expert Oscar Trimboli. Oscar shares with us how listening shapes our ability to present value when we’re selling, and how we can best use it to create better engagements and overall better relationships with our customers.

This episode was one of my favourites to record because I spent most of my time frantically writing down golden nuggets from Oscar that I’ve been actively using ever since and guess what - they work! 

Don’t miss out on some practical, useful, and powerful listening tips. Tune in now!
