Speaker Topic:

Speaking up always imposes a price. Is the benefit worth it? This talk shows audiences when to intervene, what it really costs, and how to excel at it. The attendee can carefully assess when to keep silent and when and how best to step in.

Key Objectives

1. Appreciate the cost of intervening in common workplace problems

2. Walk through common anti-patterns and the costs of intervening in them

3. Optimize the tradeoffs once the decision is made
