Tools & Best Practices for Effective Meetings
Re-tool information flows into and out of meetings to improve decision-making and reduces total meetings across the organization
We guide your staff in better utilization of existing tools, point to the most cost-effective new tools, and explain best-practice approaches for efficient team, working group, and project meetings.
Some of what your staff will learn:
- Ways to make meeting materials more available before and after the meeting: group calendar, agendas, documents used in the meeting, follow-up materials (plans revisions, minutes, etc.).
- Ways to track action items and decisions made in meetings. How to publish progress and updates to others in the company who need it.
- How to optimize effectiveness of virtual meetings and garner participation & value from remote participants.
- Virtual-meeting techniques that work.
- How to shape the post-meeting information flow around project work assignments, task tracking and progress reports - the collaboration/coordination that's beyond the realm of MS Project.
- How to manage the documents of a project, to "Get out of the Inbox."
