Turn listening into your clearest leadership advantage.
The Listening Advantage is a six-part video course in the HEARD framework that turns listening into your clearest edge — deepening trust, easing tension, and unlocking your team's best work.
Forged at the highest levels of the game.
Three decades of leadership at the highest levels of sport and business — the experience behind every lesson.
None of this means you're a bad leader. It means the one skill that fixes all four was never actually taught — until now.
There's a quieter, stronger way to lead. It's called HEARD.
When people feel genuinely heard, everything downstream shifts — trust deepens, tension eases, and teams finally do their best work. The HEARD framework makes that a skill you can build and measure, not a personality you're either born with or not.
Five moves, learned in order:
- Hold — Full, agenda-free presence, and staying steady when the conversation gets hard.
- Explore — Questions that get past the rehearsed answer to what's really going on.
- Attune — Reading the signal beneath the words: tone, energy, everything left unsaid.
- Reach — Connecting across real difference, and saying hard things with care.
- Do — Closing the loop, so people see that being heard actually changed something.
Master all five across six short video modules — then put them to work in your very next conversation.
By the end, you'll listen like the leaders people trust most.
Six short video modules. One skill, built move by move — with a workbook, cheat-sheets, and practice you can use in your very next conversation.
-
Hold your presence — even under pressure. Stay fully with someone when the conversation gets hard, so people feel safe enough to tell you the truth.
-
Ask the question that opens people up. Get past the rehearsed, "everything's fine" answer to what's actually going on.
-
Hear what isn't being said. Read tone, energy, and hesitation — the signal beneath the words — and know how to respond to it.
-
Say the hard thing without breaking the relationship. Give candid feedback and navigate real disagreement with care, so trust grows instead of fraying.
-
Turn listening into action people can feel. Close the loop so being heard visibly changes something — the move that builds lasting credibility.
-
Put it all together as your signature. Integrate the five moves into how you lead every day — and re-measure your growth with the Listening Audit.
Every module includes a workbook, a one-page cheat-sheet, and a knowledge check — so the skill sticks long after the video ends.
INSIDE THE LISTENING ADVANTAGE
This isn't a webinar you half-watch. It's a system you'll actually use.
Six focused modules — most under 20 minutes — built the way great coaching works: a clear move, shown in real leadership moments, then a specific practice to try before your next meeting. No filler, no jargon, no "just be more present." Every module gives you the exact words, questions, and steps.
You'll work alongside the videos with a printable workbook and a one-page cheat-sheet for each move, so the skill leaves the screen and shows up in the room. Finish the way you started something real: with a certificate of completion and a fresh Listening Audit to measure how far you've grown.
Everything you get with The Listening Advantage.
It's not six videos and a "good luck." It's a complete system — the training, the tools, and the measurement — built to make the skill stick.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Angela Taylor
Founder, Lead with Listening · ICF-Certified Executive Coach
Angela Taylor has spent her career where listening decides who wins. A two-time NCAA champion and team captain at Stanford, she went on to more than 20 years as a WNBA executive and broadcaster — building teams, reading rooms, and navigating the high-stakes conversations that make or break a season.
What she saw, again and again, was that the leaders people truly followed weren't the loudest — they were the ones who made others feel genuinely heard. That conviction became the HEARD framework and the work she does now: an ICF-certified, Co-Active-trained executive coach helping leaders turn listening into their clearest advantage.
She teaches the way she coaches — warm, direct, and refreshingly free of jargon. No woo-woo, no surface-level tips. Just the real moves that change how a team works.
"The best leaders I've ever been around all had one thing in common: when they listened, you felt it. That's a skill — and it can be taught."

Who is this course for?
Leaders at any level who want their teams to trust them, tell them the truth, and do their best work — new managers stepping into their first team, senior leaders navigating higher-stakes conversations, and anyone who senses that how they listen is holding their leadership back. If you lead people, HEARD applies.
-
How much time does it take?
Less than you'd think. The six modules are short and focused — most under 20 minutes — so you can finish the core course in an afternoon. But it's built to be used, not binged: the real value comes from trying one move in your next conversation, then coming back for the next. Learn at your own pace, on your own schedule.
-
Is this for individuals, or for teams?
Both. Individual leaders take it to sharpen their own listening. Leaders also bring it to their teams so everyone shares a common language and set of moves. If you're interested in training a whole team or cohort, book a free discovery call and we'll tailor it.
-
What exactly do I get?
Full lifetime access to all six HEARD video modules plus the capstone, a workbook and one-page cheat-sheet for every move, knowledge checks, your Listening Audit with a 90-day re-audit to measure your growth, and a certificate of completion. It's a complete system — training, tools, and measurement.
-
How is this different from other communication or leadership courses?
Most leadership training teaches you to speak with more authority. The Listening Advantage starts somewhere quieter — and more powerful. It's built entirely on the HEARD framework, so listening becomes a concrete skill you can build and measure, not a vague "be more present." And it comes from someone who's led where listening decides who wins.
-
Do I need any experience or prep?
None. Start wherever you are. The free Listening Audit will show you your current strengths and blind spots, and the course meets you there — no background reading, no jargon to decode.
-
How long do I have access?
Lifetime. Enroll once and revisit any module whenever you need it — before a performance review, a tough negotiation, or a fresh start with a new team.
-
What if it's not for me?
You don't have to guess. Watch Module 1 free and take the free Listening Audit before you pay a cent — so you can experience exactly how Angela teaches and see where you stand first. If it's a fit, lifetime access means the course is always there when you need it, and your 90-day re-audit shows your growth in your own scores. We'd rather earn your trust up front than lean on a money-back guarantee.
