When you cooperate with people from Poland, especially when you run meetings or trainings—whether face to face or online—you might face the challanges. Many of my international colleagues, particularly those coming from Western European and North American countries, feel a bit insecure about how to read reactions from us.By “us,” I mean Polish people, but also more generally people from Central and Eastern Europe, because it seems that the type of reactions and behaviors in meetings is quite similar across our part of Europe. In this episode you will learn:Why CEE audiences often stay silent or hesitate to speak in meetingsHow history, education, and hierarchy shape communication in CEEWhy leaving space to speak is key—and why interrupting is avoidedHow fear of making mistakes in English holds people backHow to spot and engage quieter participants in mixed cultural groupsTools and techniques to boost engagement in CEE teamsWhy setting expectations upfront makes a big differenceHow small groups, anonymous tools, and personal stories can encourage interactionWhy managers should speak last to get honest opinionsFind more materials at www.astepahead.pro/019When you listen to this episode, think of someone who would also listen to it for the benefit of themselves or their team and share the link to the recording.I wish you a sense of fun and discovery!Do you want to be kept up to date?
