You know you need to speak up in meetings. You know it's an opportunity to showcase your value, be visible and to advocate for yourself, your team and that important project you are championing. It also happens to be the one piece of feedback you're given over and over again.
The problem is you hate it. You feel so anxious and stressed at the thought of it. You dread it in the days leading up to it and suffer your way through to the end of it.
So instead of contributing you stay silent. You withdraw, make yourself small. You disengage and disconnect which makes it impossible to listen and that in turn makes it even harder to contribute anything of value.
The worst bit? How you beat yourself up after the meeting for not having said anything at all.
This is exactly the scenario I coached my clients on in today's BE THE FIRST Coaching session so in this session I want to share how I helped her solve it.
Here's what you'll learn
- The value of speaking up in meetings and why it's an essential career skill
- The importance of solving for not speaking up vs. waiting for the circumstances (how meetings are run; the culture and expectations in meetings) to change
- The way you are showing up to meetings outside work when you feel safe and valued is a superpower you can use in the workplace
- The importance of processing the discomfort and negative emotions you feel when you think about speaking up in meetings
- How to create your own safety so you become the person who can walk into any room and speak to anyone.
