To practice listening, where do we start?
Nov 29, 2023
Communication: curiosity, vulnerability & listening.
Alright, alright. Let's practice listening, where do we start?
3 levels to practice (and unlock) for the next month:
Beginner Level : listen without doing anything else (turn the phone sideways, and finish your email later!)
Intermediate Level : do not assume the feelings of the other person, let them communicate it to us!
Expert Level : do not think about your response while the other person is speaking to us (normalizing silences, of course).
This Month's Highlights
(ideas to take away!) 📦
- A good practice: a reintegration plan (reonboarding) for parental leave returns. 🤰 Like that one from our dear Alexandra, for example!
- A perk: reimbursement of the SÉPAQ pass to facilitate access to nature, combined with flexible scheduling to enjoy it before the darkness of 5 PM.
- pssssst: have you checked out our smoothie schedule menu?
- A podcast: Les Dérangeants 🎙
- A book we keep talking about: 📚 You’re Not Listening, Kate Murphy
- A book on our wishlist: 📚 Hidden Potential, Adam Grant
