TODAY'S SPEAKER
Joanne Doell "Are You Listening"
Joanne gives seminars on how to listen. She took us through some questions that encouraged us to think of how well we hear someone talking. Where do we hear the best? Where do we have the hardest time hearing? The high frequency sounds from the letters “k, s, t, f, th, ch, sh” are the hardest to hear. The take away lesson for many of us was if you didn’t hear all that someone said to you, repeat back what you did hear, then ask for what you didn’t hear.
Joanne is a past president of RC of Kihei Sunrise, coordinated the College for Kids on island, and now working by giving seminars on communication.
GUESTS
Gloria Lukens welcomed our guests:
