Today we write about a topic near and dear to the approach that IQ Wired takes with our customers. As a recent article on Forbes points out: Listening is becoming a lost art.

Listening is the single most crucial skill in communicating and building your business. Listening increases productivity, boosts confidence and reduces errors. Listening can have numerous benefits, including making you popular, building your personal brand and expanding your relationship network. 

So, why is listening in danger of extinction? According to Seth Horowitz, an auditory neuroscientist from Brown University, “Listening is a skill we’re in danger of losing in a world of digital distractions and information overload.” In fact, researchers (registration required) estimate that we only remember 25–50% of what we hear. Successful people hone this important life skill.
