Author Biography Oscar Trimboli is passionate about using the gift of listening to bring positive change in homes, workplaces and the world. Through his work with chairs, boards of directors and executive teams in local, regional and global organisations, Oscar has experienced firsthand the transformational impact leaders and organisations can have when they listen beyond the words. He believes that leadership teams need to focus their attention and their listening on building organisations that have impact and create powerful legacies for the the people they serve - today and, more importantly, for future generations. Oscar is a marketing and technology industry veteran with over 30 years experience across general management, sales, marketing and operations for Microsoft, PeopleSoft, Polycom, Professional Advantage and Vodafone. During his time as a marketing director at Microsoft, he was accountable for the five-year journey to move Microsoft Office from DVDs to the Data Centre. He consults to organisations including 20th Century Fox, AstraZeneca, BAE Systems, CBRE, Cisco, Commonwealth Bank, Energy Australia, Google, HSBC, IAG, Macquarie University, PayPal, Qantas, Reebok, SAP, TAL, Thomson Reuters, TripAdvisor and Universal Music. Oscar lives in Sydney with his wife Jennie, where he helps first-time runners and ocean swimmers conquer their fears and contributes to the cure for cancer as part of Can Too, a cancer research charity - Cantoo.org.au Review Oscar has identified the critical skill executives need to lead effectively, but which is often forgotten in a world where our attention span is defined by 140 characters. Deep listening creates trust and authentic action for leaders at all levels and is crucial to the development and retention of talent. This is a highly valuable book. MARTIN MACKAY, President AsiaPacific, CA TechnologiesOscar identifies the behaviours we all need to practice to be effective communicators, leaders and influencers - its the lost art of listening. DOMINIC PRICE, Head of R&D and Work Futurist, AtlassianOscars profound understanding of listening is so clearly demonstrated in this book. I had so many "aha!" moments. I realised I need to make more time to build a foundation for listening and embrace the pause moments because that is where you can really hear what another person is truly saying (and not saying!). JANE KING, Marketing Director, APN OutdoorUnlike our other senses, listening is collaborative. Its an act of sharing and a powerful means to create and reach different and more ambitious outcomes than those allowed by staying within our own thoughts. Oscar doesnt allow us to blame chatter and endless noise as reasons behind our choosing not to listen. He simply reminds us how, why and what might happen when we do listen deeply. JOHN KEITH, Managing Director and Head of Financial Institution Coverage, BNP ParibasOscar consistently demonstrates the power in listening to what isnt being said - to those subtle silent moments between the stories, words, explanations, excuses and justifications. Really listening into these silent moments is when the clarity comes. TRACY HALL, Head of Brand and Marketing Communications, eBayIts books like these that make you stop and think. Oscar does a brilliant job of challenging the way you traditionally think - about yourself, different situations and others - all with relevant and practical examples. Its a book I will certainly read over and over again. Highly recommended! SHARON LEWIS, Chief Marketing and Digital Officer, Future YouAs a self-confessed talker, learning the skill of deep listening has proved hard, but absolutely invaluable. It is the game changer that turned me from a manager into a leader. Shutting my mouth was only step one. Oscars book pushed me to quieten my mind and really listen. Its transformed the way I communicate. PIA COYLE, Chief Investment Officer, Ikon CommunicationsIn todays "attention economy" of endless notifications and ubiquitous connectivity, the ability to choose where and when we expend our precious resource is more important than ever. Oscars work recognises the impact of attention in creating connection and impact. This book provides valuable insights and simple techniques to begin our own journeys toward deep listening.
