Book description
Jon Yeo, head of curation, TEDXMelbourne

"By far, the best speakers are the best listeners. The definitive book on how to actually improve your listening,ย How to Listen is a fantastic resource to become a more effective leader. Trimboli breaks down what it takes to listen well, learn well, understand better, and empathize more. All critical skills at work and home."
โ€” Jon Yeo, head of curation, TEDXMelbourne

The book begins by highlighting the importance of listening in communication, emphasizing that leaders spend about 80% of their time listening, yet only 2% receive formal training in this skill. Trimboli introduces the concept of “deep listening” and explains how it can transform workplace interactions.

Key topics covered in the book include:

  • Understanding the difference between hearing and listening
  • Recognizing the five levels of listening
  • Identifying common listening villains and how to overcome them
  • Techniques for listening with your entire body, not just your ears
  • Strategies for exploring the speaker’s backstory
  • Methods to focus on what’s unsaid in conversations
  • Approaches to create a listening-friendly environment

 

Trimboli uses real-world examples and case studies to illustrate his points, taking readers on a journey from New York to Warsaw, England, and even to the Amazon River. He provides practical exercises and tools to help readers enhance their listening skills and become more effective communicators.
