No MBA, but I do plan on pursuing an MSCM (supply chain) in the next two years. I’m in a manager role now and have been for the last two years. I shied away from leading meetings at first, but as I go...

Too many people get away with being crappy because they aren’t called out. Even if you stutter while defending yourself, you still are showing that you are something worth defending....

So what? It's always better to stand your ground instead of letting them get away with being shitty and inconsiderate. If someone mocked me or laughed at me now, I'd surely let them know they're being...

>We can’t do anything. First off, I object to telling people they are powerless to stand up for themselves. Everyone can, and *should,* stand up for themselves. When was the last time you tried? ...

We can’t do anything. If we say anything(which in these situations, stutter always makes an appearance)then they will continue to laugh even more. The only solution is to hit them which can be ineffec...

Stand up? Like how? Say something back? Then we stutter again and they’ll laugh again....

Stand up. Right then and there. Tell them that it isn't OK. It can be as simple as "That's not cool. You owe me an apology." Is this from the general public, or is this from a peer group? I'm assumi...

They are trying, and often succeeding, in humiliating us. Humiliation is a deep scar. There is a book called Status that discusses this, how humans constantly strive for status and that humiliation is...

Don't let them get off scot-free. Stand up for yourself and hold your head up. Our stutter does not give people the right to treat us with any less respect. We also have our dignity and must demand re...

You do have those freedoms. But you need to *exercise* those freedoms. It's hard work. I'm not even remotely suggesting that it's easy. Any limits or restraints you feel are those you choose to acce...

Before the presentation even begins I would say to get it out of the way and let everyone know "I Stutter". Being upfront about the entire thing that's causing the fear and anxiety for us is going to ...

I agree to be patient with the child. From what I Googled, the Lidcombe program In Australia teaches parents to do just that and helps with ideas on how to gently work with the child. That’s great stu...

Well, either you do or don’t stutter and my related comments stand. It seems that the Lidcombe program provides a healthy approach for parents to interact and support a child with a stuttering issue....

It also doesn't mean that he will. And kids can get mocked and ridiculed for a variety of things. Would you rather they learn how to try to hide or mask parts of themselves or how to stand up and advo...

Disclosing is good. You’re being up front about it. No need to make a joke, they’ll appreciate your honesty and honestly there’s nothing wrong with having a stutter, doesn’t make you less valuable to ...

Write an email and copy her boss, HR, and leadership. Explain what happened and that you don't appreciate it. Confronting her in-person, in front of everyone would be better though 😬...

I feel the opposite lol The older I get, the more bullshit I am unwilling to take. Everyone is adults there, the boss knew exactly what she was doing. Some people only correct themselves when you gi...

Please please please disclose your stutter to your interviewer!!! I know it’s not quite so simple, but telling them you stutter (maybe even followed by a very brief fake stutter) breaks the ice and ...

I also stutter and I was able to pass job interviews by doing he following; Before the interview, I would give the panel a disclaimer… just to let them know that you are not nervous and although you h...

Almost everyone in Australia will just do lidcombe with him. That's the only thing authorized for insurance I believe. If he says he doesn't care about his stutter and you see it really doesn't stop h...
