Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
It is important to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the meeting. Politely pointing out that time is limited and that others need to be heard from too can help balance the conversation without excluding or creating conflict with the dominating person. Asking the person to leave the meeting could be confrontational and may not be necessary if a more diplomatic approach can be taken. Ignoring the situation or avoiding conflict may only perpetuate the issue and create long-term tension within the team.
