Improving Your Listening Skills: A Tool For Understanding The Importance of Active Listening, Common Barriers To Listening Actively and Improving Your Skills For Effective Listening.

by Carmen N. Luna

Overview

There are many reasons why people fail to listen properly. They may be distracted by an activity they are attempting whilst listening, or by other thoughts in their head they deem to be more important, or they might be thinking about what they are going to say next, which is a common flaw in communication between parties whose opinions differ.
Active listening focuses attention on the speaker. It involves the listener subjugating their own needs for a while in deference to those of the listener. It requires concentration and a genuine willingness to hear what is being said.
