About this listen

Discover how to express your authentic self while transforming into a stellar listener and deepening your personal and professional connections.

Do you wish you could confidently express what you want to say, without fearing that you will get tongue-tied or express yourself in a way that doesn’t get to the point? Does your job involve speaking before a group, and does social anxiety stop you from calmly sharing your knowledge and expertise with others? Is meeting people at parties tough, and does the thought of going up to someone you don’t know and striking up a conversation fill you with dread?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, know that you are in the majority rather than the minority. Much of the general population fears public speaking, and many more miss out on connecting with others because they miss social cues—those subtle, typically non-verbal signs that let others know whether or not you wish to engage with them.
