Listening is not passive. It is one of the most demanding cognitive and interpersonal skills in professional life. The Listen Index measures how well you listen across nine distinct dimensions -- from your ability to manage distractions and decode body language, to how effectively you allow others to finish their thoughts without mentally drafting your response.

Answer each question honestly based on how you actually behave, not how you wish you behaved. There are no right or wrong answers -- only accurate and inaccurate ones. The more honest your responses, the more useful your results.
