Chapter 3 - Consider this Case

The Boss’s Great Idea (pg. 57)

1. What should Mario do to get his employees thinking about the better listening ideas described in the chart?

What Mario should do to get his employees thinking about the better listening ideas is to make a quick meeting before work and altogether read the better ideas and create scenarios for each one to give examples as to what is meant by each one.

2. How likely is it that people will recognize and change their behaviors based on this brief sage? What else could Mario do?

It is likely that by doing this the employees will recognize and change the behaviors. Another way to reassure they do is by giving incentives to the best customer service performer during a period of time such as a gift card or VIP parking space.

3. What do you think of Marilyn’s listening, based on this brief description? Do you know people who communicate like she did? How do you react?

I think from the brief description that Marilyn is a horrible listener. Thankfully I do not know people like that because I do not allow myself, but if someone were to communicate like that I would not respond nor comply so the person understands that is not a productive and positive way of communicating.

4. To what extent are your own listening skills reflective of the poor or effective listener described in the chart?

My listening skills are reflective of the effective side of listening as to I comply with almost all of the characteristics in the chart of the effective listener.

Consider This Case (pg. 76) - Chapter 4

    My willingness to listen score is 52 out of 75. For avoiding interruption, I score perfect because when someone is talking I let her or him finish talking first, then I give my opinion. For postponing evaluation I score perfect because I always try to keep an open mind about others point of view by listening to their opinion and not jumping into any conclusion until they are done talking.

    The tone of the exchanges seems to be slightly aggressive between Marilyn and Len. In the first exchange, it almost seems like Len’s tone is a little threatening and Marilyn’s tone is defensive in response to this. She also seems to be worried that she’ll be stuck with the smaller, less productive accounts that Len is trying to push on her.…

    Relational, analytical, critical, and task are the four listening styles that people resort to when they are actively listening. Most people resort to only one style at a time but some may resort to many different listening styles at once. Certain jobs such as social worker, teachers, people in the medical fields, and police officers must be able to use all the listening skills depending on the situation they are in at that moment. The reason for this is because they deal with multiple personalities and ways of communication. I do believe that I resort to multiple listening skills.…

    I tend to think that I am a great listener. At an early age in elementary school, I learned the importance of not only expressing my feelings properly through using I messages (such as I feel sad because...) I learned how to also listen to what others say. Expressing ourselves is only a small part of communicating. Mr.COvey mentioned there are many different types of listening such as: ignoring, pretending, selective listening, attentive listening and empathic listening. I was always taught empathic listening over selective and attentive listening. I remember the guidance counselor coming into my classes in elementary and middle school to do listening exercises with the class. She wanted us to really understand there is a difference between listening and empathic listening.…
