Listen now:
Stephen T. Wegener, PhD, ABPP, joins the Faculty Factory to discusses the keys to being a great listener. This is another installment of the “H3: Habits and Hacks from Hopkins” series.
On these H3 episodes, I talk with faculty about their habits and hacks. These are the practices, efficient routines and ideas we could all benefit from hearing about in academia.
At Johns Hopkins Medicine in Baltimore, Dr. Wegener serves as:
- Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
- Director, Rehabilitation Psychology and Neuropsychology, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
The art of listening is discussed at length on today’s episode with Dr. Wegener. It seems simple enough, yet so many of us struggle with it. This includes yours truly. With that in mind, I was eager to speak with Dr. Wegener about his advice on how we can be better listeners.
“Listening like other habits is a routine,” Dr. Wegener explained.
He also points out that listening is a great way to show that you value other people. Dr. Wegener outlines effective and practical tips for how to listen better on today’s show and I can assure you it is another gem of an episode!
