Indeed, the important part to me is to teach individuals to speak from a listener's perspective. After all, the goal is not to teach them to speak to themselves. When I taught public speaking, I first taught about listening. Our first activity was for two people to listen to each other as they asked each other questions to get to know each other. Then, the one person would introduce his/her partner to the class. I didn't call this introduction a speech, as is typically done, so the students didn't seem to be as nervous. I had great success with this approach, especially working with students who suffered from high speech anxiety as the focus was on their listening to each other. We talked about what might make a speech more interesting to those who were listening. We focused on the three problems that are inherent in the listening process: Attention, Understanding, and Retention. And then, we'd start discussing ways to get and keep the attention of our listeners, to help the listeners to understand, and to enhance the listeners' memories of what was said. The speeches that were given were more opportunities for us to practice our listening than for someone to practice their speaking, although both goals were accomplished. Most likely, many other communications faculty who love listening do the same type of thing.
