The most influential people aren’t the ones who talk the most. They’re the ones who listen best.

Active listening builds trust, opens doors, and reveals what your team or audience truly needs. It’s not passive—it’s a skill and a service.

In your next conversation today, say less and listen more. What new insight surfaces when you pause to hear fully?

The picture of this dog – was too cute. The ears are so soft and flexible to the touch our ears should listen with such flexibility and forgiveness.

I totally agree! Active listening is such a valuable skill for building stronger connections and gaining deeper insights. By simply allowing others to express themselves and truly listening we can learn so much more. What a great reminder to approach conversations with more care and empathy!

Excellent reminder that we have 2 ears and 1 mouth so we should use our ears twice as much as our mouth.

If only people listened more instead of yapping away. This world would be a much better place in which to live.
