I completely agree! When it comes to being an effective communicator I believe we all can improve our listening skills. Listening isn’t easy! Doing the little things to stay focused such as: eliminating distractions, verbal/nonverbal cues, and summarizing the conversation can help you stay on the same page. Become a better listener and you will successfully maintain and develop relationships. What do you think are the most important principles when networking?

Perhaps the number one reason is our inability to listen attentively. Unless we master the art of listening, we will find ourselves doing a monologue.
