What you will learn

Voice of Health's Active Listener training is designed to up-skill you in a number of key areas. We want you to be able to take care of yourself, and also make sure you feel confident when communicating with others.

Get Started

Module 1: Introduction to Active Listening

In this introductory module, we will explore the concept of Active Listening, a vital communication skill that goes beyond merely hearing the words spoken by others, and demonstrate its importance to your personal growth.

Module 2: Developing Trust, Empathy and Emotional Intelligence

This module embarks on a journey of cultivating trust, fostering empathy, and enhancing emotional intelligence as stepping stones towards becoming a more effective listener. You will explore multiple techniques for establishing trust, and dive into the different levels of listening that we encounter.

Module 3: Crafting a Thoughtful Question

This module will guide you in understanding the significance of crafting appropriate questions, an essential tool for assisting transformation, growth and perspective change. You will explore how to begin a shift from advice-giving to generating expansive questions, and learn their capacity for initiating goal-oriented dialogues.

Module 4: Understanding Motivation and The Power of Perspective

This module dives deep into the art of understanding people's motivations and learn how they influence an individuals thoughts, behaviours, and feelings. You will delve into the profound effects of trauma on perspectives, how they can shift viewpoints, examine the hold that negative perspectives can have on an individual's worldview and how we, as Active Listeners, can play a role in illuminating alternative viewpoints.

Module 5: Common Barriers and Enhancing Your Communication

The focus of this module will be on the mitigation of common barriers to effective communication and on the improvement of your communication capabilities. You will learn aspects of maintaining focus, offering feedback, holding off judgment, and analyze the influence of non-verbal cues like body language, voice tone, and facial signals in manifesting comprehension and attentiveness.
