The need
Meetings need to be
managed so that the purpose of the meeting is achieved, the discussion stays
focussed and all opinions are heard. Otherwise time may be wasted and participants
may end up frustrated.
What will be accomplished
Following the training participants will be better able to:
- Assess when a meeting is the best form of communication
- Set the purpose of a meeting
- Identify stakeholders and participants
- Define the course of the meeting in an agenda
- Communicate with participants prior to the meeting to prepare them adequately
- Guide the meeting to meet its purpose
- Ensure that all participate
- Recognise what makes for a poor meeting, and avoid that
Participants
The
training is suitable for all those who manage meetings, or formally chair
meetings
