Episode description:
The importance of being ready, able and willing to listen as a key element in effective communication has been emphasised over and over again by previous guests on the TalkWise Podcast, irrespective of the particular field in which they work. In this episode we interview Dr Tim Ojo, who describes himself as ‘listening for a living’, and explore how he uses listening in his work as a professional psychiatrist, coach, mentor and mediator.
