POOR LISTENERS GOOD LISTENERS

Aren’t really interested in the information Look for interesting parts Pre-judge what the speaker will say Keep an open mind Day dream Stay tuned in Listen half heartedly Listen completely Stand or sit far away Are close to convey interest Forget most of the conversation Get & report key information Let themselves get bored Stay interested Only hear some information Receive verbal & non-verbal =====================================================================

Good listening equates to good hearing
As we gain more experience our ability to listen improves
The ability to read & the ability to listen are related
