Managing Someone Who’s Too Collaborative

Rebecca Shambaugh, a leadership coach, says being too collaborative
can actually hold you back at work. Instead of showing how well you
build consensus and work with others, it can look like indecision
or failure to prioritize. She explains what to do if you
over-collaborate, how to manage someone who does, and offers some
advice for women — whose bosses are more likely to see them as
overly consensus-driven. Shambaugh is the author of the books "It's
Not a Glass Ceiling, It's a Sticky Floor" and "Make Room For Her."
