Reflection questions: 

  • Think about a recent conversation that didn't go as well as you hoped. How might asking "How would you like me to listen?" have changed the outcome? What assumptions were you making about what the other person needed from you?
  • Consider the different people in your life (partner, children, parents, friends, colleagues). How do their listening preferences seem to differ? Who consistently wants advice, who typically needs empathy, and who usually just wants a sounding board?
  • Reflect on your own preferences: When you share something important, how do you typically want others to listen? Does this change depending on the topic or your emotional state? How often do you clearly communicate these preferences to others?
