Create an atmosphere of trust

• keep an open mind and avoid judgments. if your partner feels accepted and respected he or she will likely open up more
• genuinely want to listen and understand the other person's point of view
• show respect by allowing your partner to fully finish his or her thought without interrupting
• avoid bringing up past grievances and concentrate solely on the topic at hand

Know the expected resolution

• be receptive to your partner's needs. he or she may simply want you to listen rather than solve the problem
• ask what resolution your partner expects from the conversation
• minimize giving advice unless your partner asks for it

Make listening a priority

• let go of other agendas so you can be fully involved in the conversation
• postpone a conversation if children or other outside forces distract you
• address situations as they arise instead of postponing them and letting feelings simmer

"Knowing when to keep your mouth shut is invariably more important than opening it at the right time."

Malcolm Forbes (1919-1990), American publisher

"The most important thing in communication is to hear what isn't being said."

Peter Drucker (1909-2005), Austrian-American economist and author
