- Communication styles-listen to how people talk and respond accordingly:
- Visual communicators – image-based (“I see what you mean”) – watch video about this >>
- Audio communicators – sound-based (“I hear what you’re saying”)
- Kinesthetic (feel/touch) communicators – feel-based (” I feel that is right”) – watch Ted Talk about this >>
- It’s best is to cover all 3 types a bit to be able to communicate with anyone
- You must spend more time listening than talking – let others talk, at least only 50% of the time
- Do not finish the sentences of others
- Do not answer questions with questions
- Be aware of your own biases
- Never daydream when others talk to you
- Plan responses after the others finished speaking – otherwise can’t listen properly
- Summarize what the person just told you and then respond
- Keep conversations about what people say and not constantly changing topics
- Avoid mental chatter in your head while others talk – focus attention on the person talking – only ask questions based on what they just said – that will help you build good relationships!
