Facilitator: Diana Kawarsky, The Soft Skills Group

Target Audience: Team Leaders (those who lead student workers and/or support staff)

Research shows that the average individuals in our society will sit through 9,000 hours of meetings in their lifetime! (Harvard Business Review, 2014). That is over 365 days spent in our meetings – not to mention the thousands and sometimes millions of dollars spent on meetings.

From meetings with clients to those involving business development, internal practice groups or a transaction, when hosting a meeting the challenge is to manage it as effectively and as efficiently as possible. This workshop will help you learn the techniques and strategies necessary to run highly effective meetings. Learn chairing skills and how to identify the most common meeting pitfalls, in-meting disagreements and undisclosed agendas, enhance you meeting skills today for more productive meetings.

After this session, you will be able to:

• Run meetings that always end early
• Create meeting decision-making tools to always keep your meetings moving forward
• Better understand the need for diversity and be able to work with different work styles
