Introduction

Most meetings occur too often, last too long and achieve too little! Managers can spend between 25% and 50% of their working week attending, or preparing for, meetings, with up to a third of that time wasted. Consider all this time in terms of cost to your company – participants’ salaries, time better spent achieving other goals, negative feelings and drop in morale. Meetings require an ‘outcome’ – something gets done, either for you, for the other person(s), or it is mutual beneficial for both.  However it’s not just WHAT is achieved, it’s HOW you achieve it – how you approach the meeting, how you control the meeting, how you involve participants, how you influence or persuade the participants.

This 40 page meeting skills ebook concentrates on developing the skills of preparing and running effective meetings, including the interpersonal skills required to control difficult attendees.

This 40-page Magic Meetings! ebook covers:

• Understand the types of meetings which can be held
