Listening is more than mannerly: It can change the world
Did you know that most people only listen to 25 percent of what others are saying? For Eric Maddox, listening more led to one of the biggest moments in his career as an Army interrogator.
Army interrogator Eric Maddox regaled the audience at Wednesday’s Vail Symposium event with the inside story of how U.S. forces were able to locate and apprehend infamous Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. He embellished his presentation and charmed attendees with his self-effacing humor.
In addition to his riveting story, Eric imparted the importance of improving listening skills, which has the potential to enhance everyone’s interpersonal communication in both business as well as life.
