Yes, please.
83
How can you manage your team as a leader?
84
Interesting question!
85
I will say that you have to remind everyone about upcoming deadlines.

You also need to update with the team about the current progress. And what else?

I think you need to create a friendly atmosphere so that everyone can share and talk about problems without hesitation.
88
Thank you so much!
89
other questions guys.
90
Oh yeah, I see another hand.
91
What if a member ignores your words and doesn't meet any deadlines on time?

Thank you so much for the question.
94
I think it's a good idea to consult in person with that member.
95
about his current situation or the problems that he's been dealing with.
96
Sometimes we need to be patient enough to find out hidden factors.
97
It can be a member's bad mood or their personal lives.

Again, we as leaders have to create a comfortable environment for the team to share.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
