The Quiet Edge
The Untapped Power of Stillness, Precision and Strategic Silence for Senior ProfessionalsBy Paul Bangsten
Length1h 16m
About this audiobook
You know the meeting. You've been in it enough times to recognize it before it fully begins.
Someone starts talking before the agenda item is even introduced. The volume is slightly higher than the room requires. The sentences come fast, overlapping, as if the speed itself is evidence of certainty. You watch the faces around the table. Some people lean back. Some check their phones under the table. A few nod along with the practiced neutrality of people who have learned that disagreement costs more than agreement.
