We share communication in 4 ways•Speaking•Writing•Reading•Listening
![Page 5: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Listening vs Hearing•Hearing is automatic
–Your auditory membranes process the sound waves–In the meantime, your brain can be oblivious to the message or meanings being transmitted
![Page 6: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Listening vs. Hearing
• Listening is active– You consciously choose
to do– It can not occur without
your effort, your attention, your concentration
– Requires a proactive decision to do so, followed by internal and external behaviors aimed at maximizing the probability of receiving an accurate message
![Page 7: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Study (Barker et al 1981) found that
• Students spent 53% of their time in listening activities
• Students spent approximately 14% of their communicating time writing
• 16% reading• 17%speaking• Employees of major corporations
spend about 60% of their workday listening to others
![Page 8: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Most people fail to listen well•Communication as a two-way street•A reason for poor listening may be memory deficits•Hearing a ten-minute presentation, the average person understands only half what is said•After two days, another one-half is forgotten•Expect to remember ¼ of what you heard two days before
![Page 9: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The seven habits of effective people
• “Seek first to understand, then to be understood.”
• Build rapport by first understanding the other person’s paradigm
• Fill out listening questionnaire on page 212
![Page 10: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Effective communication
• Listening requires you have at least one of the four following intentions:– To understand someone– To enjoy someone– To learn something– To give help or solace
![Page 11: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Pseudo-listening• Pretending to listen to make people think
you’re interested in them so you will be liked
• Being vigilant to watch for signs of potential rejection
• Listening for one specific bit of information and ignoring everything else
• Focusing on your rebuttal or the next thing you want to say rather than on anything the person is saying
• Pretending to listen so someone will listen to you
![Page 12: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Pseudo-listening (cont)• Listening to uncover someone’s vulnerabilities
or weakness in order to take or gain an advantage
• Looking only for the weak points in the speaker’s line of communication for your counterattack
• Checking only to see how the speaker is reacting to make sure you produce the desired effect
• Half-listening because that is what a nice person would do in the same situation
• Feigning listening because you don’t know how to get away without hurting someone's feelings or offending them. Or your willingness to listen falters because the other person is boring you, and you are unsure how to make a graceful exit. (Listening to be polite)

The Assertiveness Bill of Rights•You have the right to be the ultimate judge of yourself and your behavior. Your behavior is your space, and you more than others have to live with it.
You have the right to set your own priorities. Again, your life, your time, your priorities are your space.
You have the right to refuse a request without feeling guilty. A request is not a requirement.
You have the right to ask for what you want (knowing that others have the right to refuse). Asking is not demanding. You are not invading their space by asking.
You have the right to offer no excuses or reasons to justify your behavior. You don't have to justify your use of your space, as long as it does not interfere with others
You have the right to get what you pay for. Others don't have the right to take from you without fair exchange.
You have the right to make mistakes and be responsible for them and learn from them. You don't have to make your space look perfect to others.
You have the right to have and express your own feelings and opinions. Your space.
You have the right to change your mind. Your space.
You have the right to not assert your rights. You can decide where, when, and with whom you will set your boundaries.

![Page 47: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

• Present both sides of the argument
• Repeat the key points of your position in various ways
![Page 48: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

How to Resist Being Manipulated
• You always have a right to say “NO.”
• It is not your job, responsibility, or duty to always please the other people in your life
![Page 50: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Sales Tactics•Low ball technique
–Unbelievable low price, until you decide to buy and then all hidden costs appear
•If you would not have agreed to make the purchase if the revised price had been offered initially, walk away form the deal
![Page 51: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Scarcity Principle
•“Last Chance” to purchase makes individuals see items as more valuable•Just because an item is scarce or at a low price, it will not necessarily feel, sound, taste, or work any better than if it were more readily available
![Page 52: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Door in the Face Technique•A large request is made for a big donation, followed by a smaller request•You can say no twice.
![Page 53: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Foot in the door technique
• Salespeople go out of their way to befriend you, to establish rapport before making a request
• Just because you like someone doesn’t mean you have to comply
![Page 54: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Sales Tactics
• That’s not all technique– “But wait, there’s more”
– If you don’t really want or need the main product, nor the extra goodies, then, just say no.
![Page 55: Build Trust as You Communicate](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568167bd550346895ddd0dfe/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Miscellaneous Compliance
• Do not feel guilty if you can avoid being exploited
• Do not be afraid to question authority
• Modeling is good, however, if you sense that what is being modeled is somehow phony or a false set-up to elicit your compliance, that’s your cue to take a strong stand and say no.
