Kiku

The Japanese Art of Good Listening
A thoughtful and helpful insight into why listening matters and how to become a better listener.

Listening connects us to others and the world around us. Learn how to harness its power in this life-changing new book.

Drawing on the Japanese concept of 'kiku', sociolinguist and listening expert Haru Yamada shares a transformational guide to becoming better listeners in our daily life. Kiku is a particular type of listening that goes beyond the superficial. It is a deep listening that brings us together.

Kiku offers a brand-new insight into the art of listening and an informative roadmap to help you to listen with intention and meaning in your daily interactions. Once you understand how hearing and listening work, you'll start noticing your own. You will gain a deeper understanding of the world. You'll read rooms better because you'll be reading more deeply between the lines of the people around you. Kiku is an essential guide to unlocking the power of listening in your relationships, at work and at home, and in the wider world around you.
