The Human Resources Association of Treasure Valley is pleased to announce the November Professional Development and Networking Program "Listening for the Workplace" presented by Christa Sandidge. Are you truly listening or just hearing? How does listening vs hearing affect and impact workplace communication and collaboration?  What opportunities do we miss when we don’t have the behaviors and/or skills of an active listener? Listening in the Workplace is an interactive session that identifies listening behaviors and incorporates strategic listening skills.  This is a practical, hands-on session that will increase your skills as an active listener.

If you listen well and ask questions, you will gain insight and connection that will lead you to greater success.
