What are the Benefits of Reflective Listening in Communication Skills?
by Jennifer Sobek / in Lifestyle
Reflective listening, also called active listening, is a type of verbal communication that involves the listener in the conversation restating or paraphrasing what the speaker said to ensure the listener has understood the meaning and feeling of the message. Reflective listening has numerous benefits that will improve your communication skills.
1
Validation
Having a feeling of validation is a benefit of reflective listening. When the listener reflects back what he or she heard and accurately represents what the speaker said, the speaker will feel a sense of validation or importance. Subsequently, creating the validation will also build a rapport and mutual respect between the speaker and listener.
2
Correct Misunderstandings
Effective reflective listening is also beneficial when it helps correct misunderstandings, false assumptions and misinterpretations. If the listener misinterprets and incorrectly paraphrases the listener's message, it gives the speaker the opportunity to clarify his or her points. If you don't understand the speaker's message, you can always say you don't understand or take your best guess. If you are not correct, the speaker will correct the misunderstanding.
