I was leading enterprise agility and needed to get some contract agile coaches to help my team “boot up” several new domains. A candidate was so anxious and nervous he almost started to cry and froze. I stopped the interview. Told everyone to turn off their cameras. Took everyone through a mindfulness exercise and then we started over cameras off and conversational. ☺️ He didn’t get the role but I was proud of how well my team handled it. 👏🏽
