More Information

Meetings can be a powerful workplace tool for collaborating, building relationships, sharing feedback, making key decisions and more.

However, they can take up a sizeable chunk of our time and sometimes become a source of frustration. As flexible, remote and hybrid working continues to grow, it’s important that we understand how to be mindful of the time we spend in meetings so that we make the most of this collaborative time and are able to be an effective meeting participant.

In this workshop, participants will learn how to set themselves up for meeting success, considering in-person, virtual and hybrid setups. They will explore the importance of meeting expectations and consider how they can contribute to building engagement in the meetings they attend. They will also consider what actions they can take to keep meetings on track, so that they stay focused on outcomes and avoid wasted time.

Throughout, participants will have the opportunity to apply learning to the meetings they attend on a regular basis and identify actions they can take to make their meetings matter going forward and to be an effective meeting participant.
