Communication Solutions

Challenge

Employees typically spend up to 40 percent of their time preparing for and participating in meetings. With poor planning and unclear agendas, meetings end up losing focus and devouring time, energy, resources, and money. This perpetuates an environment where people show up late for meetings or leave early, no one takes the lead, decisions are delayed, and worst of all, people don’t take action after the meeting. Yet with the right training, skills, and processes, your people can ensure that meetings are planned effectively, proceed productively, and end with a clear course of action.

Solution

The FranklinCovey Meeting Advantage workshop teaches how to plan effectively by frontloading before a meeting, focusing productively during the meeting, and following through successfully after the meeting. Whether it’s managing a large project across teams, improving communication, or addressing difficult situations, employees gain the skills to increase accountability and productivity.

About the Course

Taught as a one-day, facilitator-led programme, the Meeting Advantage workshop helps individuals learn how to: 1) initiate, plan, and define the meeting’s purpose; 2) develop skills for managing a productive meeting effectively; 3) develop and use meeting ground rules; 4) use the “Meeting Advantage Planner” to schedule follow-through; and 5) review the meeting for improvements.
