  10. Hearing Hearing is a physiological process that our body innately does unless an individual has an Auditory medical condition

  11. Listening Listening on other hand is an Active process that we have to try & accomplish

  12. Active listening is communication tool that helps you understand other person in a better way • Nobody can be your friend unless he/she has shown interest in listening to you. Same way you cannot be someone’s friend unless you listen to him/her • The first step in active listening is focusing your attention on the other person when they are speaking

  13. Developing Listening Skills • Ask good Question • Keep yourself from judging what other person is saying • Para phrase what is being told • Empathies with the other person

  14. Developing Listening Skills Ask good Question • Don’t accuse or blame in your questioning • Look for hidden meaning, seek information • Ask openended questions & insure your tone is sincere Eg:- What do you think we should do about this?,What do you feel are the options?,what happened before the fight took place?

  15. Developing Listening Skills Keep yourself from judging what other person is saying • Don’t assume that you know what other person means or is thinking • Don’t give advice to other person

  16. Developing Listening Skills Repeat back to the other person what they just said but in your own words. Called Paraphrasing- It checks weather you heard them correctly • Usually leads to obtain more information • Lets the other correct any misunderstanding & promotes interest

  17. Developing Listening Skills Put yourself in the other person’s shoes and accept his or her feelings, thoughts, and ideas about the situation • Does not mean you agree with other person • Does not mean that you give up to the other person • Means that you are not discounting what other person is saying • Takes a great deal of work on the listners part
