5. Disculpa, Perdona o Lo Siento... ¿Cómo pedir disculpas?

¿No te ha pasado que estás hablando español, leyendo y te preguntas el origen de la palabra que estás usando o que leíste? A mí sí me ha pasado. Algo que muchos saben, es que el origen de las palabras, particularmente en español proviene del latín, del griego, del árabe, en fin, muchas tienen orígenes llamativos y a mí siempre me ha gustado saber el porqué de las cosas. Escucha, al final puedes comentarme si este origen lo sabías o que creías de la palabra. Suscríbete, comenta para dejar tu opinión, comparte con otros estudiantes de español y hablemos de esto en clase.

LA HISTORIA DE LAS PALABRAS

In the business world, active listening goes beyond simply hearing information. It's a strategic communication skill that fosters deeper understanding, builds trust, and improves collaboration. It involves giving your full attention to a speaker, both verbally and nonverbally, to grasp the complete message. This includes:

Paying close attention: Minimize distractions, maintain eye contact, and avoid formulating counter-arguments while someone speaks.
Understanding nonverbal cues: Notice body language, tone of voice, and facial expressions to glean underlying emotions or unspoken concerns.
Asking clarifying questions: Don't assume you understand everything. Use open-ended questions to encourage elaboration and ensure you're on the same page.
Paraphrasing and summarizing: Reflect back key points in your own words to confirm comprehension and demonstrate attentiveness.
Empathy and emotional intelligence: Acknowledge the speaker's feelings and tailor your responses to create a safe space for open communication.
Active listening benefits businesses in numerous ways:

Stronger client relationships: By truly understanding client needs, businesses can provide more relevant solutions and build lasting partnerships.
Enhanced negotiation and sales: Active listening allows salespeople to tailor pitches and identify client concerns for successful deal-closing.
Improved team dynamics: Active listening fosters collaboration by ensuring everyone feels heard and valued, leading to better problem-solving and decision-making.
Reduced conflict: By giving speakers their due attention and clarifying positions, misunderstandings and conflicts are minimized.
Increased productivity: Active listening avoids wasted time due to miscommunication and ensures everyone is working towards the same goals.
By actively listening, businesses create a communication culture that fosters trust, collaboration, and ultimately, success.
