 Listening
“Listening, whether done by individuals or by
companies and government, is a signal of
respect. When people don’t feel listened to,
they don’t feel respected. And when they
don’t feel respected, they feel anger and
resentment. This resentment is exacerbated
if people think you’re pretending to listen but
aren’t.”
Hugo Powell
