Learn how to organize and conduct effective meetings.
Most meetings aren’t great; this isn’t breaking news. Guild masters and clerics in medieval Europe grumbled about dull meetings just as we do today. All organizational leaders recognize the widespread, chronic problems with meetings, and most ignore them, but there are exceptions. Some leaders, teams, and organizations consistently hold effective meetings. This presentation delves into what it takes for these leaders to guarantee meetings that honor people’s time and contribute to business value.
