While being verbally fluent is grea

While being verbally fluent is greatly
appreciated, it also pays off to practice
the art of listening. This characteristic is
greatly helpful when solving problems and
coming up with resolutions.
So during meetings, hear what your
subordinates have to say and
accommodate their ideas. Also, learn how
to read between the lines or to interpret
nonverbal messages, since you can’t
always expect your staff to be as vocal as
you are.
