Try to be as firm as possible – if you are chairing/hearing the meeting. As tempting as it may be to let the discussion ebb and flow and to interrupt as little as possible, it’s important to achieve a balance. People in meetings tend to talk over each other, often at a fast pace and particularly if they become emotive or angry about what they’re discussing. If this happens, remind/ask everyone to speak clearly and individually or they won’t be heard. And don’t be afraid to ask participants to wait until no one else is speaking.
