What do you do when someone makes a condescending remark in front of your team—or worse, during a board meeting? In this episode, career coach Kendall Berg breaks down the exact language to use when you're belittled, talked over, or insulted at work. This non-confrontational tactic forces aggressors to repeat their words and publicly own their behavior—without you losing your composure or professional credibility.

Using a real-life story from her early career, Kendall reveals how a VP’s inappropriate comment triggered swift organizational response—and how a different reaction could’ve changed everything. You’ll walk away with practical language to disarm toxic coworkers, shift the power in the room, and maintain your dignity in high-pressure corporate environments.

Whether you’re dealing with credit thieves, snide remarks, or subtle digs, this video gives you a tactical play that actually works.
