Interaction and Teamwork

Best Practice :: Fundamental


Learn to listen with respect and conviction. Learning how to listen attentively and appreciatively is as important as learning how to read with conversational conviction.

When you know how to listen, you know how to raise the level of viewer respect and appreciation for everyone in your newscast or segment, including yourself.

Great listening is powerful because:

• it proves you are comfortable enough with your own authority to relax and let others take center stage, and
  
• viewers assume the way you treat colleagues is the way you would treat them. Few things say as much about your role and personality as does the way you listen on the air.
