A key component of successful negotiations is active listening. Since successful negotiations depend on a give-and-take of information, active listening is actually just as crucial as talking, if not more so. Action must be taken by both parties to an exchange, not only the one providing the information. In this sense, active listening is essential to making sure that all information is successfully shared and taken in. The best method for fostering goodwill and coming to fruitful agreements is active listening, which can reduce conflict and advance a situation that might otherwise be at a standstill. In the meantime, listening shows the other person that one is setting aside one's own agenda and giving them space to think about the matter from their point of view.
