What is The Listening Shed?
We need to be good listeners so people can talk. Talking openly about our concerns, problems and feelings is essential for our mental health, affinity with others and a positive culture. The problem is so many of us don’t listen!
The Listening Shed equips individuals in your organisation, team or group to be good listeners for each other.
