Questions to consider about your setup and invitation to meet –
Where? Is it noisy, crowded, have you got good coverage?
Time allocated – are you cramming it in between meetings?
Making this important or am I ticking a box?
Intention is very important because our intention gets attention and focuses us.
Set a personal intention
Do you need to be right?
Are you open to listening to their point of view?
How you want to show up/who you want to be – how you want to behave/respond
