An elephant is stronger, a cheetah is faster but mankind's ability to communicate is second to none and the true secret to our success.

Communication requires our daily practice & development as it falls into our careers, our relationships, our financial lives, and our very happiness.

We’ll explore neural pathways involved in comprehension and discuss how factors like attention, memory, and emotional state can influence our listening abilities.

So, why do we do it, and what purpose does talking serve? In this paean to conversation, neuroscientist Shane O'Mara encourages us to marvel at our brains distinct mechanisms for communicating.
