    #12 Managing "difficult" collaborators – part 2

    I don’t understand what you want from me. Have you ever sat in a room full of people who are busily working away and felt like you’re outside the loop? Like you missed the memo and don’t know what’s going on? It’s disenfranchising and disengaging. People in this situation often draw into themselves and go silent, or they take control of events and turn them into something they do understand, which can pull everything off track for you. Here are five (and a bit) ways you can avoid falling into this trap. This is a public episode.

    You know that awkward pause when you open the floor for discussion?

Today we’re going to talk about how to avoid that moment. This is a public episode.
