More productive meetings

March 18th, 2008

Dan Bobinski, in this article on more productive meetings, gives some good advice on keeping meetings tightly focussed. In this case, it’s about strategy meetings and how they should not fuzz into tactics.

He goes on to discuss the importance of good preparation, good wrap up, good follow up and how this is not rocket science: “…the genius is in its simplicity”

Exactly!

High performance teams, sporting and otherwise, always stress the importance of getting the basics right. All those one-percenters add up to being really good at what you do.

As a meeting manager, it adds up to productive events and happy participants. What more could you ask for?
