Facilitating Productive Meetings

Did you know that the way that an individual runs meetings is highly correlated with how he/she is perceived as a leader? People who run great meetings deliver better decision-making for the organization, and are more productive with their time and the time of others. Unfortunately, the reality is that many organizations suffer from poorly led meetings, resulting in widespread frustration, difficult decision making, and even burnout. Fortunately, meeting management is a skill that can be  readily learned and applied.

This workshop provides a range of meeting management tools and has a strong emphasis on practice. Throughout the workshop, participants will use these tools to tackle specific challenges and then examine how to apply them back on the job.
