Let's stop discussing this specific point · Let's conclude this topic for now
Imagine a meeting where a discussion is going in circles 😵💫 or getting a little too heated 🔥. This phrase is your polite way of saying, 'Okay, folks, we've covered this enough, let's move on!' It's perfect for wrapping up a point without being abrupt.
When would you most appropriately use 'Let's leave it at that'? A. When a colleague suggests a new, promising idea that needs more discussion. B. When a discussion about a minor budget discrepancy is going on for too long without a resolution. C. When you are just starting a presentation and want to introduce your first topic.
💡 Use 'Let's leave it at that' when you want to politely end a specific discussion or topic, especially if it's becoming unproductive or you need to shift focus. It implies that a conclusion has been reached, or that no further progress will be made on that particular point right now. It's not usually used to end an entire meeting, but a single agenda item.
