    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Physical barriers.
    disabilities,
    poor sound system,
    noisy surroundings,
    ill,
    tired,
    or uncomfortable.
    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Psychological barriers. Each of us
    has an idea of what is right and what
    is important.
    • If other ideas are against our
    thoughts, we tend to “tune out” the
    speaker and thus fail to listen
    completely
    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Language problems.
    Unfamiliar words because they lack
    meaning for the receiver.
    In addition, emotion-laden or “charged”
    words may be unable to think about the
    words that follow.
    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Nonverbal distractions.
    Unusual clothing or speech mannerisms,
    body twitches, or a radical hairstyle
    can distract.
    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Thought speed.
    Because we can process thoughts at
    least three times faster than speakers
    can say them, we can become bored and
    allow our minds to wander.
    Barriers to Effective
    Listening
    • Grandstanding.
    •Because our own experiences and
    thoughts are most important to us, we
    sometimes fail to listen carefully
    because we are just waiting politely for
    the next pause so that we can have our
    turn to speak.

    competing sounds. Close windows or

    time and place for listening.

    listening.

    point will be.
    Continued….
    • Judge ideas, not appearances.
    Concentrate on the content of the
    message, not on its delivery. Avoid
    being distracted by the speaker’s
    looks, voice, or mannerisms.
    Continued….
    • Hold your fire.
    • Force yourself to listen to the
    speaker’s entire argument or message
