When I was in corporate life, my boss asked me to improve the Customer Experience and do it for the least cost. I remember thinking, “Ok. Sure, but….what is a Customer Experience?” Nobody knew back then.

And the voice you speak from depends on the nature of the meeting, the participants, and the desired outcomes. Regardless of whether you meet virtually or in-person, even the best teams have members who always fit into “assigned” team roles.
