Kings Centre
Tuesday, 11 December 2018
12:15 pm – 2:00 pm (UK time)
    • Jeff Heasman, Managing Director, Jeff Heasman Training & Consulting

There is a big difference between hearing what someone is saying and listening to them. Hearing is passive, listening is active.The ability to listen to, rather than just hear, what clients and colleagues have to say is an essential skill.

It helps to build strong relationships and this results in new business, business retention and happier workplaces.

This seminar will develop your listening skills and help you with both internal and external relationships at work. It will also teach you how to connect with people through understanding behavioural traits and why people say what they say.

Learning Objectives

  • appreciate the important difference between hearing and listening what someone else is saying and the impact this has on relationships.

  • understand how to listen without thinking and making judgements.

  • recognise annoying habits that can potentially isolate people communicating with you.

  • connect more easily with people by understanding behavioural traits.

A light lunch will be provided from 12.15pm

Car parking is available at Rose Lane Multi-storey (approx 5 min walk to venue)
