The document outlines six poor listening styles: spacing out when the mind wanders; pretend listening where the listener only makes gestures but is not truly engaged; selective listening where the listener only focuses on parts they are interested in; word listening where the listener focuses only on words without considering body language or tone; and three types of self-centered listening - judging others while they speak, advising based on one's own experiences rather than understanding the other person, and probing for emotions before the other is ready to share.

PowerPoint

2. SPACING OUT
“When you go off in another
galaxy. "Your mind wonders
and goes to different places
while someone's talking!

3. PRETEND LISTENING
More common in people.
Seems like their listening
because they make key gestures
such as yeah and uh-uh!
Yeah
Uh-Uh

4. SELECTIVE LISTENING
When you only listen
to the parts your interested
in and comment on the parts
that you want to hear!

5. WORD LISTENING
When you focus on words
only and not the expression
of their voice or body
language.

6. SELF CENTERED LISTENING
When you see everything
from your point of view.
Instead of standing in others
shoes you want them to
stand in your shoes.
( There are 3 types)

7. SELF CENTERED LISTENING #1
Judging
When while someones
talking you are judging
in the back of your mind.
If your judging you are not
listening either.

8. SELF CENTERED LISTENING #2
Advising
When we give advice
drawn from our own
expierences.

9. SELF CENTERED LISTENING #3
Probing
When you try to dig
up emotions before
people are ready to
share them.
