Marketing Statements has a headcount of two and so we agree with Paul.  However, we have worked and continue to work with large businesses and organisations that are willing to listen, willing to learn and willing to change and adapt to their customers changing needs, in this changing economic environment.  They continue to prosper, with very happy employees.

With the advent of email, our need to listen has decreased, but then so has the time we spend exchanging ideas face to face.  This places greater importance on those face to face meetings and thus on your ability to listen and remember what is being discussed.

We speak at around 125 words per minute but our brains are capable of comprehending speech 4 or 5 times this rate and the ability to slow down our brains is almost impossible.  We can listen but we have spare time to think.

Listening is hard work.  The ability to suspend judgement when someone else is talking is a skill that needs practice.
