As a devoted student and practitioner of the arts of listening, awareness, and stillness, Jack would say those are hard-learned and hard-earned skills. He was a butcher for thirty years, but his real vocation during that time was being present with his customers and serving them through listening. After retiring, he began working for various nonprofits and has been a speaker and trainer for leadership teams and individuals. He now serves as a professional mediator where he helps to resolve conflict through the active practice of listening and helping the parties involved to feel heard.
A skillful musician, Jack plays multiple stringed instruments and has a deep and abiding passion for the music of Bob Dylan, and the invitation to meaning presented through his lyrics.
In this episode Steve and Jack discuss:
Waitressing: listening, checking in, and reviewing.Keys to becoming a better, leader, spouse, parent, and person.Asking how or what questions to learn more about the story. Knowing what you are practicing, and that you need to be practicing continually.
Key Takeaways:
Listening starts with silence. Still yourself, have a desire to listen, attempting to understand what the other person is thinking, has felt, and has experienced. Having a willingness to come together and to understand with others. You don’t need to agree or disagree, just understand.You don’t resolve the conflict. You manage it.
