Course Description

How we lead our teams and conduct ourselves in departmental meetings has a huge bearing on how we are viewed by the people who matter most - our supervisor, staff, and coworkers. We are seen and heard most in meetings, so how we are perceived to run, or engage and participate in, those meetings skews - fairly or unfairly - the perception of our leadership abilities, communication skills and overall performance. This mini course takes a targeted look at how to run efficient meetings.

What You Will Learn:

  • Characteristics of Effective Meetings
  • Top 5 Reasons to Hold (and Not Hold) a Meeting
  • Main Functions of Meetings
  • Common Problems & Solutions
  • Managing The Meeting - The Process
