What is Empathic Listening
Contents
– You can listen, of course – you’ve been doing that all your life. But empathic listening? Really trying to put yourself in the shoes of the other and understand his subjective experience? Do you do that too?
– By listening empathically, you make a real connection and give depth to a conversation. You apply techniques that invite the other to elaborate on themselves. That way, you learn to understand his way of thinking. This makes it possible to choose your words in such a way that you connect with the inner world of the other person.
– In this training you will get introduced to the basic communication model of Shannon & Weaver. You also learn to use listening techniques, such as chunking. You practice a lot, and you will get feedback on your listening style. What you learn in this training forms the basis for all other Academy training courses which have communication as their focus point (such as Consultancy Skills or Coaching: the Approach).
