Alumni Professional Development: Making Meetings Matter

Bad meetings. They can be aggravating to a point of being painful. They are so common that 71% of senior managers in a related survey reported that they viewed meetings as unproductive. Meetings, whether in person or remote, derail for a variety of reasons; some of them are completely unnecessary. We dream of eliminating them, but they are deemed essential for team coordination and collaboration.

As the convener, you can use the strategies provided in this session to fix what’s broken, jumpstart your team toward its goals, and minimize time waste. Beyond getting practical advice for eliminating common derailers, you’ll learn about an alternative system that breaks the mold of “the way we always hold meetings.”
