Speak Up: How to Manage a Shy Employee

Gain the tools you need to improve engagement when working with people who have reserved traits.

If you encounter difficult situations when working with extremely reserved, shy employees, this topic is for you. Do you get frustrated when your reserved team members delay their responses, or do not offer their perspective at all? Do you want them to offer input and decisions in meetings, and they rarely do it? If you have these challenges, this material will arm you with the insights and techniques to break through this communication and motivation challenge. This topic will give you insight into how they see the world, how they prefer to engage with you and others, and what you can do to not only invite them into the conversation but to actively engage in it.
