Upcoming conference dates and themes: 2007: Frankfurt, Germany: “Listen to Make the Connection” & 2008 Portland, Maine: “Listening Lights the Way.” Conference presenters have included people of varied backgrounds related to listening to provide a full range of interesting perspectives on listening, for example: communication professors, corporate trainers, audiologists, musicians, a Buddhist monk, researchers and many more.
