Don t bother with niceties, or long stories. Bubbly speakers, friendly, informal, they use creative language. You can talk over them and they ll join in. Don t be critical. They re optimists. Generally quietly spoken, a little shy but friendly, approachable. Give them space, don t interrupt. Clarify what you re hearing, but don t assume to talk for them. They speak thoughtfully and precisely with pauses for thinking. Don t interrupt and don t pressure them to guess. Don t second-guess their reasoning unless you re prepared to show your research.

23 INTEREST BASED LISTENING: THE GIST

24 INTEREST BASED LISTENING: THE HOW TO Find a partner Some questions you can ask: Share a situation in which you disagree with someone a lot about something Partner: pretend you are the someone in that situation See how many questions you can ask your partner (pretending to be the other person) WITHOUT ever presenting your own point of view or making a statement Switch! 1. Tell me more about why that is important to you. 2. What has been the impact of this on you? 3. What is it that concerns you about this? 4. What leads you to say that? 5. What specific information is in your mind about this? 6. What past experiences influence how you re thinking about this? 7. What do you want to see more of moving forward?

25 IMPACT CONVERSATION: THE GIST
