Deep simplicity, a book I often reference, but often lose sight of....especially in tech....

Listening is a skill needing development as much as presenting....when is the last time you presented, but spent more time listening to who you are presenting to than speaking? What is the right ratio? I know it likely depends, but still think we could all listen a little more.
