Aligning with what the other person says is one of main pillars in relationship building. For that to happen, a keen sense of listening is crucial. This is where Active Listening comes in where we are nudged to observe and register what the other person is saying than jumping to responses.
Relationship building starts at the end of our comfort zone and it continuously involves connecting to people and building relationships rather than a superficial connection to get something done. A collection of extensively tested, masterfully led experiences called Authentic Relating Games are perfect to improve our relational skills and make meaningful human connections even in a digital space.
Stories are our fuel. They are mirrors of our beliefs and biases. Personal Storytelling will shake us before the mirror, nudge us to see our reflection, and let us weave a better narrative for our past and the present. Awaken the storyteller within during our Personal Storytelling sessions.
You're in Great Hands!
