How to Listen

Discover the Hidden Key to Better Communication

De: Oscar Trimboli

Narrado por: Oscar Trimboli

If you want to be heard, you need to know how to listen.

Communication isn’t all about what you say. It’s about what you hear, what you notice, and how you respond. In short: it’s about how you listen. And despite leaders spending eighty-three percent of their day listening, only two percent of them have ever been trained in how to listen effectively.

At a time when we are more technologically linked than ever, our conversations have never been more distracted and disconnected—because most don’t know how to truly listen.

The result? You constantly fight to be “heard” over all the noise and distraction. You feel frustrated, confused, ignored, and feel like no one is paying attention. You are drained and tired of repeating yourself. Work conversations take longer than necessary because most people only listen to fourteen percent of what the speaker thinks and means.

In How to Listen, Oscar Trimboli, host of the Apple-award-winning podcast Deep Listening, shows you how to unlock your listening superpowers. Trimboli shares practical and pragmatic insights to help you notice when you aren’t listening—and what to do about it.

When you understand the art and science of listening, you’ll master the missing half of communication—and create a more powerful impact in your workplace and beyond.

Listening with self awareness and perspective

A fundamental treatise on listening, understanding and amplifying your overall communication. Well defined core principles and concepts which, when reinforced by practice, can lead to a permanent incorporation of listening for meaning .

A plane ride

A little slow but ok I learned a bit but wouldn’t read again. Thanks again.

A transformative journey

A fantastic, powerful book on a critical but often overlooked skill. Oscar provides practical techniques and stories that help you think about listening in a new way.

Broken and hard to follow

The real listening lesson was getting through this book.

It feels broken and doesn't flow. Lots of facts all over the place.

Felt generic .. and the plug for finding a listening buddy to buy this book too was lame.

The annoying water dripping sound, a thick accent, and a confusing structure.

An informative book made bad by unnecessary additions. The water drips between chapters is highly grating.
The readers accent can be hard to understand.
The pseudo conversations break focus.

Don’t Bother

Read with thick accent, poor use of English (e.g. “….husband and father to five year old.”).
