Organizations hold more than 3 billion meetings each year and 73% of meeting attendees admit to doing other work in them. Technology and the digital revolution has transformed how we work. However, our approach to meetings and our communication in them hasn’t caught up. In this program, participants will learn how to reduce the overall number of meetings, improve the caliber and effectiveness of the remaining ones, and transform their communication within them. We examine what does and does not count as a meeting, best practices and general meeting hygiene to create a strong meeting culture, and a step-by-step process to prepare for meetings in a systematic way. We also incorporate our signature kinesthetic tools throughout this program to foster concise, valuable communication for participants and efficient, actionable communication from leaders. For post-meeting needs, we created an easy-to-use flowchart that evaluates the effectiveness of meetings after the fact. The result of all of this? Better meetings throughout the year and less time spent in them.
