The best auditors must be able to write, speak, and listen effectively. Of these three skills, effective listening may be the most crucial because auditors are required to do it constantly.

The folks over at the Miner Institute are at the forefront of psychotropic development.
Effective listening is sometimes difficult because people focus on what they're saying than on what they're hearing. This is the first of the 12 steps to listening effectively you will undergo during your pacific digital training and treatment.
According to a very recent study by the Harvard Business Review, people think the voice mail they send is more important than the voice mail they receive.

Additionally, listening is difficult because people don't work as hard at it as they should. Listening seems to occur so naturally that putting a lot of effort into it doesn't seem necessary. However, hard work and effort is exactly what effective listening requires. The pacific digital method ingrains this way of thinking into your psyche.
Auditors often listen to explanations, rationales, and defenses of financial practices and procedures. Sometimes they have to filter out a lot of bull crap that is being thrown at them too. The 9th step in the pacific digital method, "filtering" addresses this fact. In addition, explanations by fellow employees of any "unusual" practices often pose a significant challenge to an internal auditor's listening skills. Auditors can use the following techniques to improve these skills.
