Take offline
In business, “take offline” means to continue a discussion or resolution of an issue outside of the current public or virtual environment. For example, in a meeting or a group chat, if a conversation becomes too detailed or complex to continue in that setting, the participants may agree to “take it offline” and continue the conversation privately or at a later time. Taking the conversation offline allows for a more focused and productive discussion, without distractions or interruptions from others who are not directly involved in the issue at hand.
“Take offline” in business coaching means to continue a conversation or discussion outside of the current meeting or forum, often in a smaller or more private setting. For example, during a team meeting, a coach might suggest taking a sensitive issue offline to discuss it with the involved parties separately and confidentially. This approach can allow for more honest and open communication without disrupting the flow of the meeting or potentially causing embarrassment or discomfort for those involved.
