Skills[*]Give the speaker your full
attention. Do not be distracted by other things going on in
the room. Do not be thinking about what you will say while
the other person is talking.[*]Be comfortable with silence and
long pauses. You don't have to reply to every word that is
said. Take time to think before you speak.[*]Be aware of nonverbal cues that
may signal a lack of understanding. Watch the person's
expressions and body language. [*]Recognize that the person may be
having difficulty saying exactly what he means. Sometimes it
is hard to find the words that you need to express thoughts and
feelings. [*]Be aware of your own biases and
how they may interfere with your ability to listen. Listen to
what the person is saying and not what you want to
hear.[*]When waiting for a response,
pause longer to allow the other person enough time to answer.
We are always in a hurry to speak. Slow down and digest what
has been said before you speak.[*]Allow people to finish
sentences and thoughts for themselves. Do not
interrupt. Word/phrase CramCram means Study
