1Learn the essentials
In meetings, the key skills are interrupting politely, agreeing/disagreeing, and summarising.
- Jump in politely: “Can I add something here?” / “Just to build on that…”
- Disagree softly: “I see your point, but…” / “I'm not sure I agree.”
- Park tangents: “Let's circle back to that later.”
