[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are many tools out there for you to learn how to manage an interview, conversation, etc.

Maybe you should take some moderator/mediator classes.

Why would you want to only quote a blow hard? That would obviously give you a lower quality product. It was easier, that is why. You phoned it in.

It is your job to get to know the "product" and if you are having a meeting where 1 person is dominating the conversation, it is your job to figure out how to get all the information.

Remove the "racial bias" portion of the accusation.

If they came back to you and said, you produced a low-quality product because you only marketed 1/2 the idea/product/theme, you would get it. But you are all wrapped up in the "im not racist" trope.

Your need to go back and "prove you are right" because you didn't say "I don't want to hear you" shows you are not in the space where you actually want to learn and grow from this experience.

You can just get your validation from the undereducated DCUM group who will pat you on the back and tell you to not learn and grow or you can take the bits and pieces of the story that are true and become a better person.

Ask yourself, did I come to DCUM to learn and grow? or did I come to DCUM to validate my side of the story?

If it's the later, then get your validation, drink your wine tonight and move on.
If you really care about self-growth and have a growth mindset, ignore all the people trying to assuage your feelings and learn and grow. [/quote]

The change happening here is you changing the facts. There was only one product, the article, and the university isn't complaining about how it was marketed. The only complaint was a false accusation that was disproven by a recording of what was actually said.

And OP actually is asking if there is a better way to handling poorly behaving interviewees over the phone in the future, so you do offer good, and obviously welcomed advice in the first sentence. But you didn't need to assume the worst of OP in doing so.[/quote]

Not true. The product quoted the coauther instead of the lead author.

I did not assume the worst. I said either she wants to learn and there are moderator/mediation courses to do so. Or she didn't want to learn and just needed somebody to be her cheerleader ... which is fine, not everybody needs to grow and learn every single day of their life. [/quote]
