Handling Meetings
Four million hours per day! That is one estimate of the amount of time spent in meetings in the UK alone. Unless this issue is addressed, we will find ourselves work rich and time poor.
This course provides delegates with an approach that will allow them to determine whether a meeting should occur in the first place and if it does, to get more from the gathering in less time.
By the end of the programme you will be able to
· Determine whether a meeting should be held
· Recognise the type of meeting that will be held
· Know how to prepare for a meeting
· Know how to conduct yourself at meetings based on your role
· Know what to do when the meeting finishes and ongoing
· Demonstrate how to hold or participate in an effective meeting
