Our Approach

Listening Labs combines our value-driven vision with pioneering neuroscience and decades of experience to teach transformative listening and storytelling. Using a human-centered approach, we design curricula and coach and consult with organizations and individuals. Our diverse experiences as leaders, educators, creators and changemakers have taught us that a deep understanding of generative listening and powerful storytelling emerges through authentic, individualized experiences in which participants make our techniques their own. In Listening Labs’ interactive workshops, clients experience transformative revelations of generative listening and powerful storytelling upon which they can build ongoing practices.

Our team has decades of experience and results that speak for themselves. We’ve worked with Fortune 100 companies and created offerings that generated millions in sales. We’ve also helped hundreds of individuals to powerfully tell their stories, gaining full scholarships to Ivy League schools and competitive grants, fellowships and residencies.
