(1-day course)
COURSE DESCRIPTION / CONTENT
Employees typically spend up to 40 percent of their time preparing for and participating in meetings. With poor planning and unclear agendas, meetings end up losing focus and devouring time, energy, resources, and money. This perpetuates an environment where people show up late for meetings or leave early, no one takes the lead, decisions are delayed, and worst of all, and people don’t take action after the meeting. Yet with the right training, skills, and processes, running effective meetings, proceeding productively, and ending with a clear course of action will become the standard.
This dynamic and engaging one-day course teaches employees how to run effective meetings, focusing productively during the meeting, and following through successfully after the meeting.
Upon completion, the learner will be able to:
- Initiate, plan, and define the meeting’s purpose
- Develop skills to manage and conduct productive meetings
- Develop and use meeting ground rules
- Use the “Meeting Advantage Planner” to schedule follow-through
- Review meetings for improvements
