Generous listening
Viva Glint shows us what our organizations and teams need to change within the employee experience to help our people thrive. However, that insight can be wasted if it isn’t carried forward through continuous conversations between leaders and their people. But how often do we stop to assess if we're actually listening for the sake of hearing, and not for the sake of answering? A World Economic Forum article describes the act of "Generous Listening" as several factors that we should make space for when we set out to listen to someone:having true intention, making space, being fully present (not distracted, or multi-tasking), leaning into curiosity and being open to hearing something unexpected, and role modeling openness ourselves. What listening strategies have you seen, or tried, that can help build a habit of truly listening to the perspectives of employees and the accounts of their lived experiences? https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2023/01/generous-listening-work-skills-leadership-davos23Re: Introductions
Hey, everyone! I'm Sonya Bedi and I'm a proud member of the Glint People Science team in London. I work directly with customers to figure out what their employees need to feel fulfilled and happy at work. I'm passionate about helping people connect to their unique blend of strengths, understand themselves better, and find purpose and growth in the place where they spend most of their waking hours. I’m incredibly excited to connect with the wonderful Viva customer community and learn about what your organizations want and need from your integrated Viva experience. Outside of work, I am a busy mother of two little girls who remind me to be a better listener. Currently, I am basking in this Spring feeling, and planning fun things with my little family.5.5KViews9likes0Comments
