I’m delighted to be joined by Ross Judd, who’s here to talk about his new book, Listening: A Guide to Building Deeper Connections.
Ross is a highly respected author and consultant known for his insights on leadership and culture. Today, we’ll explore why listening matters, how to identify when it’s most critical, and how we can all hone our listening skills to improve our relationships—whether at work or at home.
We can’t be perfect listeners all the time. However, whether you are managing a family or a business, Ross Judd’s new book Listening will help you learn how to listen properly in the moments when those closest to you need it most.
When people feel nervous, worried, upset, or scared, they will often avoid talking about the real issue at heart. If you rush to address this initial topic by sharing your opinion, asking questions, telling stories or problem-solving, you will miss the deeper, underlying concern. To truly understand and connect with those around you, you need to listen in a deeper and more meaningful fashion.
In Listening, Ross Judd offers a unique approach that goes beyond traditional listening skills. His simple, effective, and powerful approach will transform your relationships and empower you to be the supportive presence they deserve.
