Active Listening Programme

MMS runs inspirational and educational training workshops for teams and individuals.  The focus is to improve performance in life and in the workplace through the Listening skills 

Have you ever been taught how to Actively Listen?

Summary

• Active Listening is a core life skill that is underestimated and underused – both academically and practically. According to MHFA England – we spend “0.5 years learning to listen” and use it “42% of our time” VS “12 years learning to read” and we use it “9% of our time”.

• There is a clear:

  • knowledge gap (Hearing vs Listening) and lack of use of listening skills in the right way.

  • responsibility for companies to ensure that their employees know how to Active Listen, which will improve company performance.

• Active listening improves individuals:

  • Professionally - selling a product or brand, managing clients/suppliers and working with colleagues.

  • Relationships - getting the best from friends, family, peers, colleagues and management.

  • Personally - managing their personal Wellbeing and Mental Health.

• He draws on proven teaching training techniques (MHFA England), work experience in senior roles in marketing (including managing over £150m of marketing budget in agencies), running commercial workshops/research and using his own life-changing experience.
