The best listeners listen between the lines (Nina Malkin)

Here's a few more things needed to be a good listener:

  • Some ears
  • Eye contact (focus)
  • Seek first to understand
  • Look and learn (be observant)
  • 'Hmmmm', 'Mmmmm' (avoid the temptation to interrupt)

None of that is hard. So why are the majority of people so pathetic at it?
