Improve your ability to communicate in all types of relationships with Timothy Lydgate and the Art of Listening.

The Art of Listening explores the dynamics of verbal and nonverbal communication from the perspectives of speaker and listener alike. We’ll experience the benefits of active listening through simple role plays and touch on topics ranging from bias to body language. Time permitting we will explore how appreciating the physiology of connection can increase the likelihood of positive outcomes in our daily interactions.
