Sharing written agendas ahead of meetings lets non-native speakers absorb content & prepare thoughts.
Collaborative written documentation for product requirements, etc. levels the playing field -- as opposed to heavily verbal, realtime debate. ex: setting roadmap priorities, discussing MVP features vs. fast-follows.
Both of these tactics can aid teams from a neurodiversity standpoint, too.
+1 to written agendas, helpful for everyone! At some point I stopped even accepting meeting invites if there is no agenda.
And appreciate your tip about collaborative written documentation, especially in the companies with debate culture this feels extremely necessary. Probably same goes to making sure that the decisions (after verbal debate) are properly documented and everyone can react to those and make sure its 100% understood.
Great insights! Thanks guys!
