I've seen this on HN before, but wanted to resurface it. Now that I have been working remotely for quite some time, I am noticing these differing communication styles now more than ever. Especially with phone meetings that remove any body language or visual cues, I find that I am increasingly frustrated with mismatched communication styles involving myself or my team members. Has anyone else experienced this switching to remote work? Any ideas on how to address it or at least make it less frustrating?
I used to be a somewhat cautious interrupter in person, but now have moved toward strong civility over the phone. This has been a frustrating change since at least in the phone meetings I am on, there is almost no lull in the conversation.
