This course is a must! It helped us gain clarity into why we are meeting, the purpose, and the HOW. I enjoyed the identification of who we need in meetings and the model for tracking the flow of conversations to net out to a common goal. I realize now that recurring meetings do not work and that we need to identify the most important stakeholders.

The training was informative and very well organized. The handouts were useful and the hosts were lovely.
The discussions around when something should be a meeting and the cost of a meeting versus the alternatives were the most impactful for me. The training will really help your company become more self-aware about meetings.
