Personal Listening Profile

Communication is vital to an organisation’s success. But effective communication is not only the ability to speak or write well; it hinges on the ability to listen. More than simply “hearing,” listening is the ability to receive, attend to, interpret, and respond to verbal and non-verbal messages.

The Personal Listening Profile gives personalised strengths and growth areas and provides suggestions for improvement. It includes the Communication Gap Analysis, an at-a-glance look at how the respondent’s listening strengths and weaknesses relate to the intended message of the speaker. An action-planning section encourages people to reflect on their listening styles and to develop strategies for improvement.

The Personal Listening Profile Facilitator Report gives a snapshot of group dynamics by showing the similarities and differences that can lead to miscommunication. It also helps to identify those individuals whose scores fall outside of group averages and who may feel isolated by the dominant listening styles of the group.

The Personal Listening paper profile includes the assessment, scoring, and an action plan for continued development.
