Opinions and Feelings
In a team meeting, the manager asks: 'What do you think about our new flexible working policy?' Ana says: 'I think it is a great idea. I feel much more productive when I can work from home two days a week.' Pedro disagrees: 'I am not sure. In my opinion, it is harder to collaborate when people are not in the office.' Tom agrees with Ana: 'I agree with Ana. I also prefer working from home sometimes. But I think we need good communication tools.' The manager says: 'These are all interesting points. I believe we can make it work with the right systems in place.'
