I think that’s a distinct problem from the one the article describes; the article seems to be written about mostly one on one communication. Group conversations change the dynamics massively, even moreso when the conversation must be productive, as opposed to just enjoyable.


This was more of a "yes, and" comment. The social instinct that is drilled into (most) everyone to not interrupt that this article mentions makes interrupting someone that is dominating the conversation way harder.


Fair point! I think too few people recognize that the dynamics of 1:1 conversation and many:many and 1:many conversations are so distinctly unique, so I do think that recognizing that is important!
