Thought for the Week:
Listening Skills 
When people talk, listen completely.  Most people never listen.

Listening SkillsWeek 13 Refresher-
Opening Listening Channels
 
1.  How does effective listening impact our ability to respond with clarity and accuracy?
 
2.  Have you ever pre-judged a message based on who was speaking?
 
3.  Are there times that you fire off an automatic response without really listening?
 
4.  Do you ever cease listening because you are preparing your response?
