Running Effective Meetings
Overview: Effective meetings are essential for collaboration, decision-making, and achieving organizational goals, yet many meetings fall short due to poor planning, unclear objectives, or ineffective facilitation.
Running Effective Meetings is a practical, hands-on workshop that equips participants with the knowledge and skills to plan, lead, and participate in meetings that are productive, engaging, and results focused. Participants will learn how to select the right meeting format, develop clear agendas, manage time effectively, facilitate meaningful discussions, and keep conversations focused on desired outcomes. Running Effective Meetings also explores strategies for managing challenging participant behaviours, navigating conflict constructively, and adapting facilitation techniques for both in-person and online meetings.
Through interactive activities, case studies, and practical exercises, participants will leave with tools and techniques they can immediately apply to improve the effectiveness of meetings within their teams and organizations.
Designed For: Running Effective Meetings is designed for supervisors, managers, team leaders, project managers, board and committee chairs, administrative professionals, and anyone responsible for planning or leading meetings. It is also valuable for employees who want to contribute more effectively to meetings and improve team collaboration and decision-making.
