The Generative Listening Podcast

The Generative Listening Podcast
Podcast Description
What if the key to unlocking everything you desire lies not in what you say, but in how you listen? This provocative question lies at the heart of Generative Listening, a new podcast hosted by renowned coach, speaker, and entrepreneur Brent Robertson. The podcast aims to reimagine how we think about and practice listening — and how listening can redefine lives, relationships, and leadership.
The Generative Listening podcast will introduce its audience to the practice of generative listening, a transformative approach built on the idea that listening allows us to create unique spaces where ideas, connections, and even futures can emerge.
Each episode will explore listening through deep and meaningful conversations with thought leaders, innovators, and everyday individuals. Robertson and his guests will reflect on their experiences with listening in both professional and personal contexts, unpacking what it means to listen generatively and how it can be applied in real-world situations.

Noah Ullman is a founding partner of Ant Creative and a dynamic force who has changed from identifying as futurist to technologist to humanist. Noah explores the ancient Greek concept of the six types of love and how he has applied these distinctions to his own life and relationships. Noah and Brent discuss the critical role of asking the right questions in the era of AI, emphasizing that while machines can provide data-driven answers, only humans can engage in the kind of novel inquiry that leads to deeper understanding and innovation.
This episode invites listeners to consider their own listening habits; to think about what it means to truly connect with others through this practice, and offers the tools to do so.
