In a group setting that is particularly prone to overspeaking, I find literally raising your hand always works. Someone inevitably notices quickly, points it out, everyone chuckles and shuts up, and you suddenly have the floor.
- hutzlibu 4y agoYes, that works and I included it under gestic.. Raising a finger in a moment when the current speaker notices, is a more decent variant. But I also stood with my hand literaly raised for quite some time and waited until the agitated speaker(s) stopped and finally listened to what I had to say. Or not and I simply left, but that is not always possible.
