PART 1 · LESSON 6 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES

My role on this team

Ruth wasn't involved in the room trial, and asks Ana to say exactly what her role was and what it is now, without exaggerating or downplaying it. Say, "you were involved in the room trial what was your role," "I contributed to the proposal rather than leading it," "who led it," "Jordan I handled sign-ups and the Wednesday sessions," "and now," "my role involves listening to new users and writing up what we find," "writing for whom," "for Jordan and leadership," "good put that in the report exactly like that," "contributed didn't lead."
