They turn full rooms into silent theatres the moment participation is required.
Leader: “Any thoughts?”
Team:
“Good question…”
“Yeah… important one…”
—-Silence—
Suddenly.
Laptop screens become fascinating
Notes look urgent
And everyone is nodding like they’re decoding something complex
Leader: “Let’s hear from you.”
That one person:
“Yeah so basically…”
–brain buffering…
“…yeah.”
And just like that,
a simple question becomes a full team performance.
Funny thing is.
The ideas were always there.
They just didn’t make it to the meeting.
