What happens when the loudest voice in the room suddenly falls silent?
Consider a woman named Isla who is known in her office as the idea generator. She regularly participates in meetings, offers opinions about new directions and critiques strategies that are misaligned with company values. By all accounts, she is a star employee.
Lately, however, her co-workers have noticed a shift in Isla's demeanour. She's notably quiet in meetings, only chiming in when prompted. She doesn't contribute nearly as much and seems disengaged from work. Her vibrance and passion for sharing ideas has been replaced by a palpable silence. Her co-workers can't help but wonder: what happened to Isla's voice?
