In Episode 7, Ellen talks about how assumptions affect how, and if, we listen. (What did you say?) Do you already think you know what the other person is going to say? Assumption. Think you already know their perspective? Assumption. Think you know the reasons behind their words or actions? Assumption. What happens when we’re in these situations? How do assumptions interfere with what we do next? How do we overcome those assumptions and engage productively? Join Ellen as she shares her own experiences making assumptions, and insights about ways to overcome them.
