Chairing Effective Meetings

PDF
Course Duration: 3 Hours

Course Overview

Meetings are important for management and communication. When it comes to the serious stuff, face-to-face meetings are effective because they outdo the written words of emails and memos, and out-perform the effectiveness of telephone conferencing.

Meetings are costly of both time and money. A poorly structured and managed meeting will waste the time of everyone, will cost the time of everyone, and make people dread attending in the future.

This course aims to showcase the skills and knowledge needed to chair a meeting successfully
