Nail directly on head. I am trying to figure out how to reasonably make a case for what I think will work best. I am making attempts to communicate and I'm concerned that my attempts are either not conveying information properly, or people are not interested in the information I want to discuss.
I am socially awkward and dealing with stuff like this is exponentially more difficult than the technical work I am trying to schedule meetings for.
Paul Grahms essay on Maker / Manager schedule encapsulates this perfectly. How do you convince Managers to at least be aware of the Maker schedule and how different that is from theirs? How do you get people to care about this without coming off as whiney and demanding?
It's not about email / phone, it's about styles of thinking and order of processing. Social awkwardness has been a thorn in the side of my entire career and I'm trying really hard to do better at this opportunity.
