Meeting Etiquette
While reading Liz Lawley's blog, I ran across this post which has broad implications on how to behave in a meeting. In my opinion, it goes much beyond that and how to act towards others in general. I admit I'm guilty of a couple of the things but now that I'm concious of them, hopefully I can change.
Here's a quote from "An open letter to other men in the movement: Shut the F*ck Up (or, How to act better in meetings)":
"This essay is about how men act in meetings. Mostly it’s about how we act badly, but it includes suggestions on how we can do better. Men in the movement reproduce patriarchy within the movement and benefit from it. By patriarchy I mean a system of values, behaviors, and relationships that keeps men in power. It relies on domination, claiming authority, and belligerence."
