Past the awkward silence

Sometimes, communication that should happen doesn’t happen.

If things get stuck, I look at which people are not talking to each other, but should be.

Often, they just need a little nudge to get things started.

Sometimes, it’s enough if I put them in a room together.

Other times, I need to be there to facilitate the discussion.

But once the ball gets rolling, it’s hard to imagine that there ever was a problem.

What I learned is not to wait for collaboration to start on its own. It often needs a little push.

Yours,

Taj
