Managing Meetings Effectively

Managing Meetings Effectively

“About 80% of meetings are 80% a waste of time for 80% of the participants. The best meetings are between two people when one fails to show up." Anon

Meetings are an important part of business life. Some people spend more time in meetings than out of them. Meetings are an opportunity to communicate ideas, solutions, updates, procedures and so much more. Why then is it that a lot of them are considered inconvenient, problematic and irrelevant?

We look at all aspects of meetings from planning and preparation to chairing and facilitating. We look at action planning, minute taking and how to ensure they achieve what they need to achieve.
