It is a proactive version of pointing out a problem in a meeting, but wishing you hadn’t when the chair assigns you to solve it! Which is why so many attendees keep quiet about situations in need of improvement–not wanting to be saddled with the responsibility of fixing it. But to put your mind to coming up with an approach to solving it, THEN drawing attention to it…well, that’s a brilliant suggestion, Karie!

Thank you Karie as it is an honor to know you.
