    Applying the Disciplined Listening Method | Michael Reddington | Ep. 143

    Most of us were never actually taught how to communicate with other adults. We were conditioned to talk as kids, then we grew up and started leading teams, negotiating agreements, parenting, coaching, and managing high-stakes conversations. In this solo episode, I’m introducing the Disciplined Listening Method and walking through what it is, why I created it, and how you can start applying it right away. This method is built from behavioral science, interview and interrogation research, and real-world business communication. But at its core, it is simple. Create the communication experience the other person needs. When you do that consistently, you reduce resistance. You build trust. You create commitment instead of compliance. In this episode, I break down what makes a conversation high impact and the seven core behaviors that help you prepare, engage, and follow up with discipline. If you lead people, influence decisions, negotiate agreements, or want stronger relationships at home and at work, this is the foundation.
