Weighing the Cost of Intervention
 
Speaking up always incurs a price. Is the benefit worth it?

Over-intervention is a form of micromanagement the Business Analysts both experience and perpetuate. This talk examines when to intervene, what it really costs, and how to excel at it. The learner can carefully assess when to keep silent and when and how best to step in.

● Minimize disruptions to work

● Facilitate meetings more effectively and with less effort

● Recognize and minimize the behaviors that demotivate people and sap their initiative

● Build greater trust, confidence, and openness

● Embrace productive conflict

Learning Objectives

1. Recognize and categorize the costs of intervention

2. Identify sound and unsound reasons for intervention in teamwork or meetings

3. Minimize the tradeoffs of stepping in once the decision is made
