    ACCA · Question 43 · Syllabus E: Personal effectiveness and communication in business

    Section A

    During a performance review, a manager listens to an employee's complaint and then says, 'So, what you are saying is that the current software is slowing down your processing time?' Which active listening technique is the manager using?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Reflecting

    B.

    Paraphrasing

    C.

    Probing

    How to approach this question

    Identify that the manager is restating the employee's point in their own words to check understanding. This is paraphrasing.

    Full Answer

    B.Paraphrasing✓ Correct
    Paraphrasing is an active listening skill where the listener rephrases the speaker's statement in their own words. It demonstrates that the listener has heard and understood the factual content of the message.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing paraphrasing with reflecting. Reflecting focuses more on the feelings/emotions behind the words.
