Management: The Art of Making Meetings Work
Are you frustrated with the way
your meetings work? Do they lack focus? Are there times some
members of the group dominate the proceedings? Are you not
always sure who should attend? Are you looking for a way to
structure meetings to make them more effective yet at the same
time maintain an open atmosphere? This one-day meeting
management workshop not only
covers the simple need of meeting structure, but also includes
some intervention strategies, tips on how to write an agenda,
and a popular meeting icebreaker.
What
participants will learn:
-
Understand the value of meetings
as a management tool
-
Recognize the critical planning
steps that makes meeting time more effective
-
How to start and end meetings on
time with a well-constructed agenda
-
Identify the role of the meeting
chair and the meeting participant
- Identify
the steps to take to create an open and safe forum for
discussion
- Develop
and practice techniques for handling counterproductive
behavior
Workshop
Outline:
As facilitator,
you have the option of using a variety of training methods
for each workshop. This includes large group discussions,
individual work and reflection, small group discussions &
exercises, case studies and simulations for role play.
Customization will be based on your own needs or information
provided by your human resource department or the individual
department prior to the workshop. Materials are designed as
interactive workshops with a 40/60 split between
concept/theory and practical application of skills
discussed. Class size should be kept under 20, whenever
possible, so each participant will have the opportunity to
gain techniques for the types of situations they deal with
or expect to deal with.
