Hi Team,
The coaches challenge of the week is “listening”. The challenge here is to try to consciously listen when someone else is speaking. Are you able to hear everything they are saying? Are you aware of their movements, tone of voice and words? See how often your mind drifts away when someone else is speaking. Do you start to think about what your reply will be before the person is finished speaking? Do you interrupt or finish their sentences for them?

Being present while listening is one of the greatest challenges we encounter every day.

Have a great week!

Kathleen
