Meetings are where many people spend much of their time; dozens of hours every week. But are all these hours a source of innovation, energy, and engagement – or not? What if, with some small tweaks and new techniques, your meetings were significantly better? What if they produced twice as many valuable solutions in half the time? What if you truly heard from all voices? What if they connected the right people? What if you felt fully charged rather than drained by them? In this hands-on learning session, we’ll cover a few easy-to-use, modern meeting techniques that you can put into practice the next day. The fun but practical plug-and-play tools and tips will energize you as you connect with your peers.
