“Frankly, I had never thought of listening as an important subject byitself. But now that I am aware of it, I think that perhaps 80% of my work
depends on my listening to someone, or on someone else listening to me.”
“I’ve been thinking back about things that have gone wrong over the past couple of years, and I suddenly realized that many of the troubles have
resulted from someone not hearing something, or getting it in a distorted way.”
“It’s interesting to me that we have considered so many facets of communication in the school organization, but have inadvertently
overlooked listening. I’ve about decided that it’s the most important link in the organization’s communications,
and it’s obviously also the weakest one.”
