Course Overview
A major cause of frustration for everyone is the sheer amount of time wasted in attending useless meetings where there are often: no objectives, no agenda, one way traffic, no involvement, actions are not owned or achieved or perhaps the meeting overruns.
No one has time to waste in this day and age. People are stressed and exhausted enough, and alleviating their day from pointless meetings will enable them to free up invaluable time to focus on the achievement of their corporate goals and objectives.
Meetings, run well are a great opportunity to motivate, galvanise, engage, drive strategy, increase performance levels and increase employee engagement and achieve, some of those corporate goals.
This highly practical workshop is suitable for anyone who ever has to facilitate any kind of meeting for any kind of audience, and the delegates will learn a range of skills, and techniques, to enable them to run meetings that are worthwhile, motivational, and are a valuable use of everyone’s time.
Please note, this course can be delivered either virtually, face to face, or it can be delivered with a blend of both formats. We will customise the content and duration in line with your learning and development requirements.
