If a member speaks less in a group discussion but may have useful ideas, what should the leader do?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Politely give the member an opportunity to share ideas
A good discussion leader creates space for different voices rather than judging contribution by how frequently someone speaks. Politely inviting the quieter member can bring an overlooked idea into the discussion and improve the group’s decision. Ignoring or removing the person is exclusionary, while listening only to talkative members creates an unfair discussion.
