Observe a work meeting (if you do not currently work, think back to a previous job). If you have never been in a meeting, interview a person who attends meetings regularly.
Watch the following video, which features a meeting. And answer the question:-

- Listen to the language being used by each person
- Who does most of the talking?
- Who asks most of the questions?
- To what extent does the talk convey information about power and gender differences? (Look specifically for who takes credit? Who exudes confidence? Who asks questions?)
- As a change manager, how will your awareness of these differences influence your future interactions with staff?
Response to the questions posted above must be approximately 200-250 words. Response must have a clear, well-formulated thesis and idea development should be supported by in-text quotations and references.
Pay attention to correct sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, and make spelling count.
Response should be insightful, thoughtful, and analytical.
