I attend a lot of meetings, and I rarely get a chance to speak if I don’t talk over someone. It’s tough to deal with these type of meetings but I use a different approach. I take very detailed notes and highlight action items. Then I meet one on one with some of the people that attend the meeting. I find many times that they missed action items and other valuable information. These smaller one on one meetings give me a better outcome in terms of impact. Many ideas discuss, end up making their way into the bigger meetings.
