Project Summary: Assignment 1 of 2 Introduction This assignment is all about listening – something we rarely do effectively. The Assignment How do we really listen? Or perhaps the question should be, do we just hear and not listen? Conscious listening is necessary to achieve improved relationships not only at work, but also at home. Discuss the many ways in which you listen, at home/at work. Then elaborate on what you learned about conscious listening. In what ways is this different from the way you listen now? Say how following Julian Treasure's recommendations could change your understand of people, of situations at work and in your personal life.
