Are your team meetings working for you? If you’re experiencing…

  • Underlying tension
  • Things that are not being said
  • People not listening to each other
  • Topics that go way off the agenda
  • People dominating the conversation 

…a process observer might be what you need. In this episode, Elena shares what you need to know about introducing this powerful role into your team meetings.  

Mentioned on this episode: 

Opportunities for continued learning: 

Reflection questions: 

  • You can’t have a process observer without having team norms. Does your team have norms? If so, are they actively known and shared by your group? If not, what is holding you back, and what is the first step you could take to help get them into place? 
  • What has your (and your team’s) experience been with process observers in the past? 
  • What are you experiencing in team meetings right now that makes you interested in introducing a process observer? What would you hope this role would result in?
