2. From Julian Treasure’s talk… …we need to teach listening in our schools as a skill. … if we can teach listening in our schools, we can move … to a place where everybody is consciously listening all of the time – or at least are capable of doing it. … I invite you to connect with me, connect with each other, take this mission out and let’s get listening taught in schools, and transform the world in one generation to a conscious listening world – a world of connection, a world of understanding and a world of peace.
