Meetings are often major time-wasters. Experts tell us that many professionals waste up to 30% of their time in meetings. What's the solution? Streamlining the information exchange process and improving facilitation techniques to ensure that your meetings meet your bottom-line objectives.
This workshop provides proven methods for improving your "ROM" (return on meetings). From results-based planning through facilitation leadership and assignment follow-through, this program provides both the techniques and the practice to allow you to learn and apply these skills. Your meetings will become a place where your team can solve problems, create practical plans, and motivate each other to take action.
