START FINDING SOLUTIONS TO COME OUT OF THE CRISIS.

Let others say what they want to share with us.

We must be attentive while we are listening to the speaker. In the process of communication, speaker is sharing information with the listener, so both are at the extreme ends of the process of communication and language acts as the medium between them. So both the speaker and the listener must have some expertise in language they use, while sharing and receiving the information.

We must have listening etiquette

The listener while receiving information, must be careful enough and attentive as long as the speaker shares the information .

As a listener, we need to note down the main points in a note pad to avoid confusion at the end of the process of communication.

Next we need to establish coherence among all the main points of the message to get the clarity of the message we received.

Next we need to cultivate the habit of being attentive to avoid communication gap, the more the gap, the more the scope for misunderstanding the information.

To avoid this problem, we need to maintain good eye contact with the speaker till the completion of the communication process.

Make sure that you are in a zone which is free from noise pollution, or else, you may not be able to receive the exact information and might be disturbed by noise to a great extent.

Another important thing that we do, is to keep ourselves free from hesitation. When we have some doubts regarding to the information or if we want get some more additional information, we must not hesitate to get clarity and additional information from the speaker.

While receiving information or listening to any speaker, we should not let our concentration shifts from this to another event, as we can’t ride on two horses at the same moment effectively.

As a listener we remember one thing that we should never take opportunity to discuss something with somebody when the speaker shares something with us. If we do like that, other fellow listeners are also disturbed. It sends false impression to the speaker and spoils our image and reputation.

One more important point to remember is that, we should not try to divert the speaker from the main point to other topics which are of no use at that particular moment either by asking irrelevant doubts and questions. We may miss some important information if we interrupt the process of communication.

So we take care of the above points, no doubt, we are the effective listeners and it is sure , we can get the benefits of effective listening.
