Listening is the ability to accurately receive and interpret messages in the communication process

One solution is to employ active listening techniques, to remind yourself and others that you’re involved in the conversation even if you don’t speak so much.
Here are some tips to show that you are actively listening:

• Make eye contact with the person who’s talking.
• Lean forward slightly to show interest. If you’re actually listening this should be natural.
• Nod your head slightly to show you’re understanding.
• Make agreeing noises and nod your head if you agree with something they’ve said.
• Don’t look distracted by fidgeting, playing with your phone or looking off into the distance.
