How can I become a better listener?
assistant
1. Start by paying attention to the person who is talking and make sure to give them your full attention.
2. Ask open-ended questions that encourage the other person to talk more.
3. Practice active listening by repeating back key points from what the other person said and summarizing what they said.
4. Notice non-verbal cues like body language and facial expressions, which can give you further insight into how the person is feeling.
5. Lastly, pause and reflect when appropriate.
