Listening assessment
The ECHO Listening Assessment includes a list of ten English-language questions that need to be answered. It is of great importance that the answers are provided from the perspective of the current work situation. By then ranking the answers in order of priority, a personal listening style can be identified using ECHO.
Because everyone has their own listening style. We also process the information we hear in our own unique way. To improve the quality of subsequent communication, a good understanding of listening and processing this information is necessary. When you have a good understanding of how you listen, you can use these insights for the listening habits of the people around you. This not only makes your communication more effective but also that of your colleagues or team members.
Listening is a skill that can be considered cognitive. This means that you can train these skills. Just as you get stronger as you do muscle exercises, you learn to listen better as you train your cognitive listening skills.
The goal of the ECHO Listening Assessment is to provide insight into your personal listening preference style. You will also discover how the people around you experience your unique way of listening. After completing the assessment, you will receive a comprehensive personal report with recommendations. They will show you how you can effectively adapt your listening skills to different situations and circumstances.
