Make your meetings more inclusive

Extroverts often do their best thinking whilst they talk. And introverts tend to do their best talking once they’ve had time to think. 

Freeform discussions and brainstorming are great for extroverts. Extroverts evolve their thinking as they keep contributing to the conversation. 

Introverts often need thinking time to best contribute. Thinking time can happen before, during and/or after your meetings. 

So next time you’re planning a meeting…

Think how you might structure it to allow thinking time. You might just start having an inclusive conversation.
