内容説明

Praise and Reviews Communication expert Alan Barker analyses every aspect of holding a meeting and provides reliable advice on how to get it right. KEEP CONTROL ENCOURAGE EFFECTIVE PARTICIPATION MAKE A PERSUASIVE PRESENTATION LEARN THE GOLDEN RULES How many meetings have you attended that are boring, unproductive and a waste of time? People are spending more and more time in meetings and most of us have horror stories of some we have been forced to endure. Meetings are about getting results -- they are a mechanism for achieving action and the need to improve them has never been more urgent. In How to Manage Meetings, communication expert Alan Barker analyses every aspect of holding a meeting and provides reliable advice on how to get it right. Key topics are dealt with in the author's approachable style, including: preparing for a meeting; effective participation; chairing a meeting; group dynamics; problem solving within a group; different types of meeting; follow-up actions. Whether you are a chair, participant or minute taker, you are partly responsible for the success of a meeting and can find ways to manage them better. If you are frustrated at the waste of time, effort and energy in your organisation's meetings and want to get results, this book is for you.
