How do you tactfully tell someone a conversation is going in circles?

<p>This topic came up when Michael Piperno, MS posted on LinkedIn that saying "Like I said..." is rude and not helpful. </p> <p>That is true and sometimes you need to point out that a conversation isn't getting anywhere. I asked Michael, Domenico Ciarallo and Brandon Mahoney how they handle circular conversations. </p> <p>The discussion was enlightening. Listen in and then let us know, what do you do when you realize a conversation isn't making progress?</p> <p>To connect with the panelists, please visit their LinkedIn profiles: Brandon Mahoney: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandoncmahoney/  Domenico Ciarallo: https://www.linkedin.com/in/domenicociarallo/  Michael Piperno: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelpiperno/  Dr Robyn Odegaard: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robynodegaard/ www.DrRobynOdegaard.com </p> <p> #QuickHits are designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to get other people's thoughts on various subjects.
