Chairing Meetings
Quicker, Better Meetings
Half day workshop
Overview
‘More meetings?!’ Many people see meetings as a waste of time. No clear agenda or objectives; people who dominate; no real actions decided; overrunning time…..sound familiar?
A meeting costs the organisation a lot of money, and takes up valuable time when people are already short of it. This course is designed to help a chairperson organise the meeting well, and lead it with confidence so that the best outcomes can be achieved in the shortest time.
What you will learn:
By the end of this half day session, participants will:
- Have learnt the techniques to manage a meeting effectively
- Be able to develop self-confidence and authority in the role
- Know how to engender a common purpose in the meeting membership
- Know how to work successfully with the minute taker for the meeting
Who should attend
Anyone who has to lead a meeting
