Making Meetings More Effective - £230
21 – 22 April 2010
What’s wrong with our meetings? Just ask people and they’ll tell you - ‘boring’, ‘unproductive’, ‘too long’, ‘no tangible output’, ‘lacking focus’, ‘people aren’t honest’, ‘waste of my time!’ Over time, people expect poor meetings and silently suffer (at least until the meeting is over and they’re out the room).
