What Courageous Listening can do for you

Words invoke many emotions and thoughts. Words can move you to tears or move you to action. And if you feel or think any of this, then listening is powerful practice.

How do I know that courageous listening is powerful?

I’ve worked for 20 years in business, corporate and as a high level professional. I’ve emerged brands, people and talent through courageous listening. It takes courage to enquire and understand. And trust. Trust in ourselves and from others to have the space and time to create meaningful change.

The world we operate in says “Just get it done. We don’t have time to spend on this. Don’t think, just do. I don’t have time for questions.”.

Yet you know that when you do slow down a little, make some time, grab a coffee, you hear the things that you missed OR the things that you really wished you’d said. And why is it the faster you work, the harder it feels to get where you want to be?

The faster you go, the harder you work and so the only time you do listen is when you stop.

Courageous listening is not about taking more of your precious time. It’s using your time more preciously.

In this four-week programme, you will:

  • Feel confident in your ability to listen more consciously and purposefully
  • Appreciate the question of enquiry
  • Trust yourself in slowing down and not rushing an answer
  • Start to see as well as hear, that comes with the power of listening
  • Recognise when you want to respond and interrupt
  • Explore the possibilities  that arise when listening
