Overview
As public sector professionals, your team spends a significant time in meetings, either as Chairs or as participants. These meetings are too often badly organised, time-consuming, unproductive and inconclusive.
Designed for public sector leaders and managers, this Effectively Leading Meetings bespoke team course helps plan, organise and steer meetings to a successful conclusion. It includes practical exercises on setting the agenda, organising the process and the discussion, dealing with difficult people, summing up and delivering agreed outcomes once the meeting ends.
Through tutor-led sessions and an extended role-play session in the afternoon, delegates will leave the day understanding how to use meetings of all shapes and sizes to get far better results for everyone at your organisation, at all levels.
