HBR – Increasing participation in team meetings requires fostering a safe, inclusive culture by understanding individual and group dynamics. Leaders should conduct one-on-one meetings to uncover personal barriers to engagement and invite participation by valuing team members’ contributions. At the group level, they should set clear behavioral expectations, model desired behaviors, and create structured, inclusive meeting environments. Introducing new rituals, rotating facilitation roles, and addressing power dynamics can help ensure all voices are heard, ultimately enhancing collaboration and decision-making.
