What is to Listen?

Verynice came to me to help the American Heart Association with a manual/booklet on teaching effective listening methods in the workplace and beyond. Its mission is to equid teams with a better overall understanding of becoming allies, listening to perspectives and stories and help build transparency.

Listening is Essential

During these tough times, the American Heart Association wanted to show how they practice building transparency. By listening to one another effectively and with empathy. In other words: “Everything begins with listening. Exponential listening happens when the practice of listening challenges our assumptions to the point of creating significant change in the way we work; and the way we think. Exponential Listening is a toolkit based on an award-winning framework, and follows a simple four-step process: Question, Listen, Reflect, and Learn.”

The Process

Contracted

Verynice sent me an email requesting collaboration on project. Schedules and deadlines are assorted by Verynice and the American Heart Association.

Adapting

A structural body and first drafts were created in order to generate a design direction, approved by both parties. Final direction included using icons to represent different sections within the book.

Deliver

After a few sessions of feedback and direction, the final product was made. This final e-book can be found on Reginald, part of the “Creative Problem Solving Toolkits”.
