SHIFT YOUR LISTENING!

Limerick City, 24^th-25^th March 2007

SHIFT YOUR LISTENING! is a 2-day course that offers participants a Fun, Safe Environment to explore how they Listen and what others are Hearing. Based on the “Nine Tools Of Empowered Listening” it offers a “how-to” for Clear Communication and Resolving Issues in your personal life or business situations through discussion, group exercises, break-assignments and homeworkľeach assisting in developing Listening Skills you can implement right away.

Saturday begins with introductions and the course specifics (itinerary, logistics, etc.) We work together as a whole and break into small groups to experience all levels of Listening not only of yourself but to the diverse members of your groupľwho can represent someone/some situation significant in your life. The group meets for lunch to complete an assignment. There is homework, such as practicing Listening with your family and/or friends as well as silence beginning 10pm and some written work.

Sunday begins with a review of Saturday, where are you now with your listening, what skills have you discovered, and then continues with exercises and tools development so that by day’s end, you will have used and experienced all “Nine Tools of Empowered Listening”. The course completes with full acknowledgement of each participant and a plan for going forward as an inspired listener.

Are you surprised that PEOPLE ONLY LISTEN TO ABOUT 25% of what is being said? And worldwide:

· 95% OF ALL DISEASE is created by stress, which is created from misinterpretations?

· Couples claim a main reason for BREAKDOWN and DIVORCE is poor listening?

· TEENAGE HOODLUMS have cried out “maybe now I’ll be heard”?

· Corporations name listening as a much needed, yet MISSING, MANAGEMENT SKILL?

It’s amazing that all of the above can be countered by THE PRACTICE OF TRULY LISTENING. And, what about you? Do you:

· Get STRESSED and IMPATIENT waiting for the speaker to finish?

· INTERRUPT and CUT OFF your spouse or children in mid-sentence?

· Stop talking because you JUST KNOW that no one is listening to you?

· REPEAT yourself because you ‘think’ the other person doesn’t really hear what you’re saying?

· Take twice as long to complete a project because of constant staff MISCOMMUNICATIONS?

If so, then SHIFT YOUR LISTENING! is for you. Learn LISTENING TOOLS & SKILLS to apply to your life right away. Discover:

· How it feels to be TRULY HEARD and how it feels to REALLY LISTEN

· How to ALLEVIATE the need to interrupt and LET GO of impatience

· How to EMPOWER yourself and others (children, staff) through LISTENING

· How FULFILLING relationships can be with family, friends, co-workers and peers
