Ask to Request Control
- When you want to take the lead on a project, explicitly ask to request control.
- This makes power shifts clear and shows your willingness to help without overstepping.
Request Control Symbolizes Leadership
- The 'request control' button in Microsoft Teams is symbolic of shifting leadership deliberately.
- It shows that leadership changes can be useful and should be done explicitly.
Examples of Requesting Control
- If a spouse is overwhelmed with work and not progressing on planning, you could ask to take over.
- At work, offer leadership on neglected projects to demonstrate initiative and help shift responsibilities.
