The group, all senior leaders, was discussing the new business vision and strategy.  Soon, the conversation took a deep dive into the details concerning how certain initiatives would be designed and executed.  

As their facilitator, I called their attention to what they were doing and asked if this was the level of conversation they intended having.  They decided it wasn’t.  I agreed, and reminded them of the people, all around them, who have great ideas, genius-quality solutions, strong leadership skills and an eagerness to make a difference…people who understand the industry, love the company and would welcome the opportunity to contribute more, if only there was space.
