Role Reversal

Posted by Lisa | Posted on 17-06-2009

I had a meeting today with my wonderful professor, David, to brainstorm some ideas. He was a great, receptive listener, and mid way through our conversation I felt extremely out of sync because I realized that he was in the seat that I usually occupy.

It felt awkward as soon as I thought about it, and happily, we discussed it and the boundaries that we need to maintain. Upon reflection, I realized that it’s good to be in the other chair from time to time. It makes us better when we return to our regular seat.
