Leaders inspire their teams by actively listening to employees. When managers make an effort to listen, they see benefits in engagement and positive relationships that can move an organization toward success. To create a culture where employee input is valued, senior leaders must set the tone and model active listening. The eight steps to becoming an active listener include approaching each dialogue with an open mind to learn, focusing on the speaker without distractions, asking open-ended questions, drilling down to details with specific questions, summarizing and checking for understanding, providing positive feedback, listening for total meaning including non-verbal cues, and paying attention to responses while keeping an open mind.

The skills used by a person to properly interact with others. In the business domain,
the term generally refers to an employee's ability to get along with others while getting the job done.
Interpersonal skills include everything from communication and listening skills to attitude and deportment.
Good interpersonal skills are a requirement for many positions in an organization.
Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen has a major impact on your job effectiveness and on the quality of your relationships with other people.
The way to improve your listening skills is to practice "active listening." This is where you make a conscious effort to hear not only the words that another person is saying but, more importantly, the complete message being communicated.
1. Effective listening
Leaders inspire their teams by showing they care. One of
the most important ways leader communicators show
they care is to listen—truly listen—to what people have
to say. (There’s a reason we have two ears and one
mouth.)
When managers make an effort to listen to employees,
they see in the benefits in terms of engagement and
positive relationships, which move an organization
toward success.
It's not only about inviting employee input. It’s also
about proving you value that input by taking action on it.
To create a culture where people feel their input is
valued, you need to facilitate dialogue. Senior leaders
must set the tone, establish expectations for the entire
organization, and model active listening.
The eight steps to becoming an active listener:
1. Approach each dialogue with the goal to learn
something. Think of the person as someone who can
teach you.
2. 2. Stop talking and focus closely on the
speaker. Suppress the urge to think about what you’re
going to say next or to multitask.
3. Open and guide the conversationwith broad, open-
ended questions such as “what other strategic
alternatives did you consider” or "how do you
envision..." Avoid close-ended questions that can be
answered with just a “yes” or “no.”
4. Drill down to the details by asking directive, specific
questions that focus the conversation, such as "Tell me
more about..." "How did you come to this conclusion?"
or "How would this work?"
5. Summarize what you hear and ask questions to check
your understanding, such as "If I’m understanding you..."
or "Tell me if this is what you’re saying...."
6. Encourage with positive feedback. If you can see that
a speaker has some trouble expressing a point or lacks
confidence, encourage him or her with a smile, a nod or
a positive question to show your interest.
7. Listen for total meaning. Understand that in addition
to what is being said, the real messagemay be non-
verbal or emotional. Checking body language is one way
to seek true understanding.
3. 8. Pay attention to your responses. Rememberthat the
way you respond to a question also is part of the
dialogue. Keep an open mind and show respect for the
other person’s point of view even if you disagree with it.
How will these tips help encourage dialogue in your
culture?
