Listening
Listening is a great example of how you can benefit from the concepts we teach in leadership development workshops. It was developed through decades of experience teaching people to listen more effectively as leaders and colleagues.
That experience was poured into a book that will help you support the people you love when they are feeling vulnerable, worried, upset, or even scared.
