in How We Work
Throughout our formal and informal education, from pre-school to postdoc, we're taught how to read, how to write, how to speak. But we don't get any instruction about how to listen. Even though it's how we take in information and get clues about what's happening around us, even though listening is essential to problem-solving and to collaborating with others, listening skills are rarely part of a curriculum. We don't learn how to listen.
