Listen for the brilliance of others. It makes a huge difference! In this episode of our SIMPLY FOCUS podcast, we talk about Solution Focused listening. Find out what we love about the topic “listening” and what differences it makes when we listen for the brilliance of people. Learn about the “T study” that shows that as listeners we are co-narrators: when we listen attentively people are much better storytellers. Get to know Nancy Kline’s time to think or how a good thinking environment produces better results, and listen how we do the “thinking rounds” and what differences these make in our relationship and our family life. In Solution Focused Listening we listen for the brilliance of people, their preferred future, everything that works, and signs of progress, then we select exact words of the other person that reflect that, and build with our questions and their answers a useful conversation (see also episode #4 – the Art of asking great Solution Focused questions). Check out how listen – select – build can be used in everyday conversations or how Dominik’s mum found 20 things that are already going in the right direction. And last but not least the weekly challenge: Chose one conversation each day where you decide to listen in a Solution Focused way for the brilliance of your conversation partner. After the conversation take a few minutes and discover what differences this made. Enjoy!
