How to have Efficient, Effective and Enjoyable Meetings?
How to have Efficient, Effective and Enjoyable Meetings?
Meeting time is precious time - it’s an opportunity to explore tricky questions, hear what’s going on, get to know each other and align. But sadly meetings can also be a time when we get impatient with each other, or when time just ticks away.
In this webinar, we will talk about how to gain more clarity on our meeting time. How can we make sure everyone’s time is used efficiently? How can we make shared agreements on how we spend our time? How can we come to decisions that value all voices but also move things forward?
You will walk away from this webinar with 3 very concrete things you can change in your meetings immediately!
