Listening effectively is instrumental in enhancing communication, whether in interviews, business decisions, or personal relationships. To be a better listener, one should refrain from establishing a predetermined agenda, avoiding biases toward the individual being spoken to. An open-minded approach encourages genuine engagement. Moreover, active listening fosters the development of insightful follow-up questions, with particularly impactful short inquiries beginning with 'why' that deepen the conversation. These principles not only refine interviewing skills but can also significantly improve interpersonal connections.
