As a leader are you really all ears to what your employees are saying to you? Or you are just a part of the conversation? A key to an effective communication, listening is one of those skills acquired early in life and with time we refine it.

Disturbingly, as soon as the communication complexity soars, communication gap is created with more filtration of information and less enhancement of listening skill.

"One-approach-fits-all" has become obsolete in today's scenario and a research shows that the leaders who do listen to their employees are in a much better position to lead the increasingly diverse and multigenerational workforce.

Spearheading a team of different personalities with different opinions and engaging the members can be challenging to cleanse their skills, stimulate them while nurturing an equivalent environment for everyone.
