The greatest challenge to communicating well is the fact that your mind works several times faster than a speaker speaks. You need a technique to quiet your tendency to listen to your own thoughts, to your desire to question and/or to offer advice, rather than truly concentrating on understanding the issue from the speaker’s point of view.
