Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for your help on my question regarding studio orgs, amazon is
rushing me your recommended resources. I have another question for which I
could use some pointers/resources, etc. How do you balance the conversation
when participating in a larger brainstorm or design meeting? How do you make
sure you benefit from quieter folks' opinions, stop the louder folks from
dominating the discussion, reduce interupting, etc. The only formal method
I have seen is passing the conch shell or the talking stick but I that seems
a bit limiting.

We are fortunate to have a moderator for our larger design discussions so we
have some flexibility on implementing solutions.

Look forward to your ideas.

Thanks!

Mike
