LEADER AS FACILITATOR…
DON’T DOMINATE, FACILITATE:
Leading High-Energy, Productive Meetings
Meeting more, enjoying it less, getting less done…does
this describe your organization? Floundering,
non-productive meetings waste time and money and
frustrate the participants. You really must “stop
meeting like this.”
For active, productive collaboration to occur, teams
must gather together and discuss issues. Effective team
leaders facilitate the creative communication processes
that promote active involvement, sharing of relevant
information, organization and efficiency, and impressive
results.
This workshop develops effective meeting leadership
skills. Participants will:
-
identify the five most common causes of floundering
meetings and how to correct them;
-
recognize the seven most important elements in
productive meetings and learn how to make those
happen;
-
develop skill in diagnosing what the group needs
moment to moment;
-
become more sensitive about just when and how to
intervene;
-
learn to share leadership by teaching members to
fulfill specific roles that aid results-oriented
discussion and problem solving;
-
institute a process check that continuously improves
meetings.
