I work on a team that regularly interacts with executive leadership at a government organization. One of my co-workers has consistently backed out of situations where she is scheduled to address our executives. Someone else generally has to fill in for her. We suspect these situations carry a lot of anxiety for her and she is intimidated by our senior executives. How can we address this issue and support her challenges? —Holly
