About the event
In this session on Radical Listening1, we will focus on the skill of “Noticing”.
Radical Listening means more than just hearing or comprehending. It is a suite of social skills that takes in and uses information from multiple sources. Noticing is a gateway skill in that it provides the focus for coaching questions, acknowledgments,
and other interventions.
Although seasoned coaches tend to be adept at noticing, there is always room for growth. In this experiential 90 min presentation, Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener will (re)introduce participants to the skill of noticing within the Radical Listening framework
We will discuss what we notice, why we notice, and what we are more likely to overlook.
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- explain the link between attention and noticing
- increase your awareness of your unique noticing habits
- use note-taking, in particular graphic recording techniques, more effectively in your coaching.

AI notetakers Using AI to record events raises ethical questions about privacy and consent, as well as concerns about data security. While AI systems can offer advanced capabilities, we prioritize respecting boundaries, ensuring transparency, and minimizing risks by relying on trusted human oversight for sensitive or confidential information. The AC will therefore not use or allow the use of AI notetakers for any our events.
