She doesn\u2019t speak up voluntarily &#8211; she\u2019s too shy for that. Then when a colleague on the call invites her to speak, she quickly asks a question back to be polite and let others speak (and actually she\u2019s a bit nervous about speaking because she\u2019s not very confident in her English).<\/p>\n<p><b>Mayumi\u2019s problem<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The others on the call with Mayumi quickly take over the conversation and she loses the opportunity to make her point. They see her as not such a strong member of the global team.<\/p>\n<p><b>What game should Mayumi play?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Instead of tennis, which worked in Sachiko\u2019s case, Mayumi could think of basketball. Once she\u2019s got the ball, It&#8217;s better for her to keep it and get it through the hoop. But instead she quickly hands the ball to the other team and is left out of the game. In other words, she should keep talking until she\u2019s made her point.<\/p>\n<p>Different communication styles work in different situations (and with different people).
