working with people

Things to watch for
Treating working with people as a list of terms
Connect each term to the course question, evidence, and an example.
Ignoring the audience or context in decision making and communication
State who is affected, what decision is being made, and what constraints matter.
Leaving building and leading teams until the end
Use staged practice and revision so the final work reflects feedback and course goals.
