“Take care of your employees and they will take care of your business. It's as simple as that.” -Richard Branson

Are you an Executive, Manager, Team Leader or a member of a team interested in supporting others to improve their business communication skills and “soft skills” to build better relationships within the team, with clients and personal life to create more WIN-WINS for everyone??

If so, we would love to connect with you!

What we offer is a simple and highly effective strategy to training in experiential connection, communication and listening skills as there is no official “how to” for that.

And our training is exactly that... training individuals in skills so they can be more present and aware in their day-to-day communications.

Our foundational technique is the simplest form of meditation that exists. The more a person is present in their daily life, the more they can manage the stresses of every day life.

If this interests you/like to learn more, we would be happy to meet with you and give you an overview of what we have to offer.

It’s time to tune in: why listening is the real key to communication

It’s rare that people don’t interrupt and shift conversation to themselves. Bad listeners are not necessarily bad or boorish people. You’re likely to have a dear friend, family member, or maybe a romantic partner who is a bad listener. Perhaps YOU, yourself, are not the best listener. And you could be forgiven. In many ways, we have been conditioned not to listen.

It is by listening that we connect, comprehend, co-operate, empathise and develop as human beings. It’s FUNDAMENTAL to any meaningful relationship – personal, professional or political.

But today people RESIST listening to one another. They find face-to-face encounters trying and phone calls intrusive, preferring text and wordless emojis. Many people refuse to listen to opposing views, shouting down or walking out on speakers who challenge their thinking. If people are listening to anything, it’s probably through earbuds, safe inside their own curated sound bubbles.

HOW do you connect with people once you’re “out there” and “face-to-face”? Truly listening to someone is a SKILL many seem to have forgotten or perhaps never learned in the first place.

I learned that listening goes beyond just hearing what people say. It’s also paying attention to how they say it and what they do while they are saying it, in what context, and how what they say resonates within you.

Listening is NOT about simply holding your peace while someone else holds forth. Quite the opposite. A lot of listening has to do with how you respond – the degree to which you elicit clear expression of another’s thoughts and, in the process, crystallise your own. It starts with an openness and willingness to truly follow another person’s story without presumption or getting sidetracked by what’s going on in your own head.

Good listeners ASK GOOD questions. One of the most valuable lessons I learned as a journalist is that EVERYONE IS INTERESTING if you ask the right questions. If someone seems dull or uninteresting, IT’S ON YOU. Good questions don’t have a hidden agenda of fixing, saving, advising, convincing or correcting.

You might not agree with them, but you gain understanding about their background and influences, which is essential to reaching compromise, or, at the very least, maintaining a peaceful coexistence. Moreover, listening to others makes it more likely that they will listen to you. This is in part because it’s human nature to return courtesies, but also because you learn people’s values and motivations. With this you’ll be better able to craft a message that resonates.

Listening is a SKILL and, like any skill, it degrades if you don’t do it enough. It takes AWARENESS, MOTIVATION and PRACTICE. While some may have more natural ability and others may have to try harder, everyone will benefit from the effort. The more people you listen to, the more aspects of humanity you will recognise and the better your judgements, instincts and intuitions. We are, each of us, what we attend to in life. To listen poorly, selectively, or not at all, is to limit your understanding of the world and deprive yourself of becoming the BEST YOU can be.

How can we create a workforce full of lifelong learners?

We all agree that the world we work in today is so different from the world that was when our current learning systems were designed. Everything around us—our workplaces, our workforce, and entire industries. And learning—continuous, lifelong learning—is a bare essential for us to keep up.

The people who will flourish in this new world are those who can a) learn to learn, b) learn to unlearn, and c) learn to relearn. Yet, in a recent global survey of 1,000 business leaders, conducted by Infosys Knowledge Institute, these skills received short shrift. Respondents were far more likely to list TEAMWORK, LEADERSHIP AND COMMUNICATION when asked which skills they considered to be IMPORTANT NOW. While this thinking limits the tremendous potential in the talent market, the finding itself points to the huge latent competitive advantage for companies that actually nurture learnability and embrace lifelong learning.

But, what goals do we want lifelong learning to achieve?

Most managers concur that their workforces must be well-versed in the hard skills they need to get the job done. Soft skills have become just as important, with business leaders ranking creativity and critical thinking near the top of their list of the most-desired skills. This makes perfect sense, given that solving problems will get easier and easier as technology gets smarter. The rigor and discipline for forward-thinking companies must instead be steered into problem-finding.

The business of framing a problem, solving it, then going back to see if it can be reframed in a better way, and re-solving it until the solution can no longer be improved remains a human endeavor. And we need to get our people to get better at this. The process is often well-supported by on-demand learning to guide the ex*****on of the new task. Just-in-time training augments the just-in-case learning, from our schooling, that sought to prepare us with sundry skills just in case we needed them at work. But is that enough to motivate and truly prepare the legions of problem-finders we now need to nurture?

Here are three points to ponder as we try to help the workforce learn better.

1. There’s value in negative expertise

2. Feedback—done the right way—can be motivating

3. It’s smart to doubt your idea

How can we create a workforce full of lifelong learners? The future belongs to those who can learn to learn, learn to unlearn, and learn to relearn, says Infosys executive Ravi Kumar.
