How to Listen So People Can Think

‘The quality of everything we do depends on the quality of the thinking we do first.’ Nancy Kline

How to Listen So People Can Think is an inspiring and practical guide to unlocking individual and collective intelligence. It highlights practices that also improve relationships, and bring pride, joy, and engagement to a wide range of contexts – from individuals and families to charitable organisations and corporations.

Based on Nancy Kline’s pioneering work on the conditions in which people think for themselves – the Thinking Environment®– the book proposes simple steps that make a big difference for individuals and groups.

Vivid stories about real-life implementation of a Thinking Environment make the book an easy read. Each chapter includes suggestions for simple, practical things to try out in everyday life.

A Thinking Environment is successfully enabling independent thinking all over the world.
