Improving Your Listening Skills™

Help people select the most effective listening approach based on the situation and on the communication needs of others.

idXready™: Improving Your Listening Skills provides individuals with the key to clear communication through developing an understanding of effective listening techniques.

By incorporating proven, researched-based assessment data, Improving Your Listening Skills personalizes the learning experience for each participant. Learners will discover the five different approaches to listening and identify their most natural listening approaches. Through the use of relevant video and hands-on, experiential

learning activities, participants will learn how to successfully communicate with others by modifying their listening styles when communicating with team members and customers, creating efficient, productive, and effective work environments.

Participants walk away with skills, knowledge, and tools to improve their listening skills, resulting in improved communications, fewer mistakes and misunderstandings, and more productive information-sharing between team members.

• Recognize the importance of developing good listening skills by reflecting on their past listening experiences
