No, we don`t. But for me it is not only a matter of time it it is a matter of technique and motivation.

No. For many reasons. Not that many are good at listening, i.e. doesn´t know how.  Many has too much to do with their own life and problems. i.e. don´t have the motivation and strenght to listen to others.  Many wants to talk more about their life and problems than listening and be apart of others. 

The real question is: How do we stay active listerners when the people around us are not doing the same. 

I have been learning about active listening when I was doing a coaching course. But the way we listen in our relationships are also affected by how others are. Because it takes effort to listen actively.

No, we don't. Personally, I believe it is the product of the tendency to individualism that the models of society that we have developed have been generating. People are too busy solving our own problems, fighting a kind of precariousness, material / spiritual. We do not know very well where to go and it seems easier to deal with the "known" imposed problems than to take the time to discover and take care of new ones.

In my opinion, the question would be more : why people used not to take time to listen actively the others ?

Is there an excess of individualism, lack of empathy or kindness, need to be heard personally, pressure of time... or a question of education...

No, arguably most managers don't take enough time to listen actively. Thus  many a times it does  leads to misunderstandings and misrepresentations within the team

My answer depends on my previous experiences in the field.

I normally like to share my daily work in contact with the national staff,

and I have learned, over the years, that it is really important to listen carefully to the team.
I believe that our "modern society" loses more and more physical contact with the world around us, but  I having lived 20 years in Latin America, in close contact with the various indigenous peoples from whom I learned to listen to others to improve ourselves.

Yes, I believe we have enough time and we have to do so for mutual understanding. When we are in hurry of responding, many times we will not close the deal or reach our communication goals. We end up in argument or not receiving what we have been expecting. 

It is important to listen because when your time comes to speak up, you will deliver an reason-based opinion which you can benefit from.

It could certainly improve. 

In my case, many times I forget to do it! 

Thanks for this point, for sure it will help me to improve my listening

For me, Communication in work environment is very important.

 I always try to find time for active listening, specially to any problems that need to be solved. One hour a week, normally on friday,

 I dedicate a meeting to expose how the task week is going, to understand how the work is going and some more issue.
