LEADING DYNAMIC MEETINGS

Leading Dynamic Meetings
One of the biggest complaints in organizations today is “too many meetings!”
When you dig a little deeper, it’s not just the amount of meetings that is the problem; it’s that people want to attend more effective meetings. Meetings that lack clear objectives and agendas include the wrong people and lack effective facilitation are ineffective and waste time. Poor meetings cost money; effective meetings save time and money.
