This. This is true in social settings too. As an HSP - I get tired of people just brushing the surface when conversing. Same tropes same mediocre answers. Same conversations - it’s rare to find people who are willing to go deep. Thanks for the graph, did you come up with this? 🙌🏻
Thanks for the comment, I do see what you mean! I find this difficult both at work and in my personal life - you’re right that not so many people are willing to go deep.
I did come up with the framework and idea for the graph (the original title for this post was ‘the truth lives in level three’). But I didn’t draw it myself, we have Napkin to thank for that 😉
Thank you very much, Andrea. Great insights and very well described! The usual advice that we all should improve our listening skills is usually quite unspecific. You make it much more specific what good listening is about. This is really helpful. I especially liked the expression of ‘creating space for complexity rather than demanding simplicity’ in conversations.

Thank you so much for the feedback, I’m happy to hear this framing helps. This is the stuff I wish I’d had when I first started my job…!
Yes, same for me!
Great breakdown of the process.
Thank you, and thank you also for resharing!
Great essay, Andrea. Very nicely done indeed.
Thank you James, much appreciated!
That was my level 1 response. Please don’t quiz me to get to level 4. I’m not ready for that just yet. I need to digest the contents.
😂😂👌🏼 best comment - I won’t press further.
