A Guide to Effective Meetings

Unnecessary and unproductive meetings waste significant time in the workplace. Yet we all rely on meetings to communicate and collaborate with our teams, coworkers, and clients regularly.

This course provides a guide to effective meetings—from both the meeting facilitator’s and participant’s perspective. 

As a meeting facilitator, you’ll learn about your role and responsibilities, including how to create a meeting agenda, encourage equal participation, keep a meeting on topic, and build consensus or manage conflict in meetings. As a meeting participant, you’ll learn how to speak up in meetings, voice disagreement respectfully, and be a model attendee.
