Magic Meetings!

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.
