"ARE YOU LISTENING?" Thursday, May 23rd, 10-11:30 a.m. Calendar House is partnering with the Southington Public Library to offer this popular program again! You may hear well, but do you listen well? If not, you're missing more than you know. Try active listening. With practice, you can reduce distractions, recognize unconscious biases, read between the lines, and avoid judging or giving unwanted advice. Family, friends, and coworkers will notice you actually pay attention during a conversation. Are You Listening? is a sometimes-humorous look at listening styles, bad habits, and body language. You'll hear about recent findings and follow proven approaches to listen better. To register: Call 860-621-3014 or stop at the Calendar House front desk. Your presenter, Southington resident Waldemar "Wally" Kostrzewa, has taught workshops for colleges, state and local agencies, corporations, and community groups. Topics have included team building, leadership, effective meetings, strategic planning, project management, and customer service.
