In a world where so much is out of our control, there’s one thing that is firmly in our own hands: how we show up–our way of being. 


And how we listen is the key to a way of being that expands opportunity and deepens connection. In this Skill Session, you’ll learn your default way of listening, how to determine what type of listening is appropriate, and grow your expansive listening muscles. These skills will make you a more effective and happier coach… and person.
