Active Listening: How To Connect More by Talking Less - with Orly Israel
How do you know if you’re a good listener? Listening isn’t necessarily a skill that we automatically get better at as we get older.
This week, I’m talking with my guest Orly Israel about:
- What makes a good listener.
- What a Listening Table is and the unique way that Orly tackled his goal of becoming a better listener.
- Why a lot of us don’t share more with the people in our lives.
- How different conversation styles might be making your relationships a lot harder.
- How to have more fulfilling conversations with your friends.
- Practical tips for being a better listener.
About Orly:
Orly Israel is a self-described listener in training. He's always been passionate about communication skills and he started his listening table as a way to learn to listen and he’s at this point, he’s hosted over 100 of them. Now Orly teaches listening to anyone who will listen to him.
