 Nature gave us one tongue
and two ears so we could hear
twice as much as we speak -

Listening- the unused potential
 It can be stated, with practically no
qualification, that people in general do not
know how to listen. They have ears that
hear very well, but seldom have they
acquired the necessary aural skills which
would allow those ears to be used
effectively for what is called listening.

 At the University of Minnesota , a course in listening to a
large segment of the freshman class. Each group of students
that has taken listening training has improved at least 25% in
ability to understand the spoken word. Some of the groups
have improved as much as 40%.
 In listening for adult education classes made up mostly of
business and professional people.
 These people have made some of the highest gains in
listening ability of any that we have seen. During one period,
60 men and women nearly doubled their listening test scores
after working together on this skill one night a week for 17
weeks.

What Good listeners THINK?
1. The listener thinks ahead of the talker, trying to anticipate
what the oral discourse is leading to and what conclusions
will be drawn from the words spoken at the moment.
2. The listener weighs the evidence used by the talker to
support the points that he makes. Is this evidence valid?
the listener asks himself. Is it the complete evidence?
3. Periodically the listener reviews and mentally summarizes
the points of the talk completed thus far.
4. Throughout the talk, the listener listens between the lines
in search of meaning that is not necessarily put into spoken
words. He pays attention to nonverbal communication
(facial expressions, gestures, tone of voice) to see if it adds
meaning to the spoken words. He asks himself, Is the talker
purposely skirting some area of the subject? Why is he
doing so?

When people talk
 They want listeners to understand their ideas.
 Grasping ideas, is what a good listener
concentrates on
 Listening skill is one which definitely can be
taught, one in which people can build
experience leading toward improved aural
communication.

Link between Listening and Emotions
 When we hear something bad, it turns
us off
 On the other hand, when someone says
what we want to hear, we open our
ears wide, accepting everything.
 This creates two effects-
 We become deaf
 Listening becomes easy than expected

When you dont like what you listen
 For instance- The firms accountant goes to the general
manager and says: I have just heard from the Bureau of
Internal Revenue, and The general manager suddenly
breathes harder as he thinks, That blasted bureau! Cant
they leave me alone? Every year the government milks my
profits to a point where Red in the face, he whirls and
stares out the window. The label Bureau of Internal
Revenue cuts loose emotions that stop the general
managers listening.
 In the meantime, the accountant may go on to say that here
is a chance to save $3,000 this year if the general manager
will take a few simple steps. The fuming general manager
may hear thisif the accountant presses hard enoughbut
the chances are he will fail to comprehend it.

Benefits of Listening
 Economy of communication.
 Poor listening leads to pile up huge paper work,
that leaves us tangled.
 Reading & writing slower communication
elements than speaking and listening.
 Now reading and writing requires a number of
elements and equipment needs to be handy.
 If good listening exists then you finish the
communication in one message.
