Chairing of Effective Meetings

'It's Monday - There must be a Meeting' Workshop

Have you heard this statement in your workplace? Followed by the answer - there is always one on Monday. Save time, be more productive and avoid conflict through effective meetings in your workplace.

Di Riddell - Workshop Leader

Do the meetings in your workplace:

Start with no agenda and conclude being with unproductive with no outcome?

Run over time?

Become dominated by a minority and others feel they are not being heard?

Have poor chairmanship through a lack of knowledge or letting the participants rule the procedure?

Come at a huge cost of time, low morale and productivity?

After this workshop facilitated by Di Riddell your Manager’s will be able to:

Prepare an agenda
Keep on time
Engage the participants and keep them moving in a positive direction
Achieve outcomes – leave with an action plan of who, what, how and when
Run meetings where participants are heard
Facilitate better discussion
Have the basics of chairing a meeting in a strong positive manner
Be firm and fair so all can participate and be engaged
Keep employees on track, engaged and contributing
