Are you a good listener?
Many of us think we are good listeners, but maybe, just maybe, we are not as hot at listening as we think we are. Today, Dr. Guy Itzchakov joins Traci Ruble on the podcast to talk about the subtle art of listening.
Doctor Itzchakov is an assistant professor at the University of Haifa and the Department of Human Services and obtained his Ph.D. from the School of Business Administration at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.

His focal research has been on the effects of high quality listening on facilitating a change in the speaker’s emotions, cognition, and behavior. Dr. Itzchakov is also research advisor to Sidewalk Talk.
