Efficient meetings
Do you participate in too many meetings, in meetings that are too long, or perhaps in meetings that are wholly unimportant? Then this is the course for you.
Running an efficient and relevant meeting that generates real value for participants and the organisation itself is not necessarily an easy task. Meetings easily become too long and occasionally pointless. It is important that participants are left in no doubt about the value and relevance of the meeting once it's over. That's why we've put together a course that gives you the tools to run a meeting that has value for all parties.
