Our Building Better Managers research identified developing people as a key capability for the modern manager. Managers play a major role in workplace development as we found "Reaching out to my manager" to be the number one strategy managers use to solve challenges.

In this week's newsletter, we've curated some of our top resources on active listening for you to explore and brush up on your listening skills!
