My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,- James 1:19
Listening is vital for every relationship, whether family, church, work or friends.
After my boss fired me for almost losing $30,000, and my friend scolded me because I did not listen, I knew I had to change.
I began my journey to be an Active Listener.
I took communication classes, read internet articles, and practiced my skills on friends.
Now I am compelled to share my findings with you.
The facts:
A recent study commissioned by Siemens and SIS International Research revealed that 17.5 hours are lost each week to address communication concerns in the workplace. Lack of listening tops that list.
Be a better servant at work, church, and home.
