Responding to office meddlers - how to gracefully say 'No Thanks'‪.‬ Product Coach Podcast

We always have that someone who throws in a random unsolicited ideas and suggestions to your projects. While we are told to be open minded the reality is that's we have our biases and we do get annoyed and tend to respond too early. In this podcast we talk about how you can take a pause in your response and give yourself a bit of time to navigate through this. The product manager is put in an unfair situation when the meddler sends in their suggestion. By understanding the situation and taking a well thought out approach you can politely say NO if the idea doesn't make sense.
