About this course

Overview

Do you need to improve the effectiveness and value of meetings in your workplace?

Do your meetings tend to go off course, be dominated by a few, not come to firm decisions, take too long or seem to lack people’s input and enthusiasm?

Successful, worthwhile and valued meetings are important to sustain effective communication, motivation and involvement across teams and organisations.

Ineffective, drawn out, devalued, unnecessary or badly led meetings can have an extremely negative impact on performance, time management and team working.

Suitable for:
This 1 day course is for anyone needing to ensure they can effectively plan, manage and follow up meetings, which attendees find worthwhile, productive and useful.
