How I Catch Myself Being Stubborn in Meetings

Ever find yourself in a meeting, arms crossed, totally convinced you’re right? That’s me—sometimes I realize I’m missing out on great ideas just because I’m stuck in my ways. Here’s what’s helped me loosen up: • I focus on really listening, instead of just waiting for my turn to talk. It’s surprising how much more I pick up this way. • I remind myself that I don’t have to be right all the time. Letting go of that pressure actually feels pretty good. • I practice trusting others, even with tasks I usually want to control. Most of the time, people step up and do awesome work. • I try to keep things light and not take myself too seriously. It’s easier to connect when I drop the know-it-all act.
