How to: Host a good meeting (virtually)

Lisa Pool, Membership Marketing Manager at IEMA, explored what it takes to prepare meetings effectively, deliver efficiently and follow-up with purpose.

 

Meetings. We have so many of them, but do we ever stop to really think about why we have them and how we could increase their efficiency? Usually, you only think about a meeting as being a one-hour slot in your diary – you’ve added it in to the calendar, people have accepted, you know vaguely what you want to talk about, so you’ll turn up on time and take it from there. You might not cover everything you want to, so you add another one into the diary and before you know it, your weeks are filled with regular meetings on various projects that make slow progress. But there is another way!

This webinar accounts for 1 hour of CPD and is aimed at all levels, whether you're looking to gain or build upon existing skill sets within this area.

After this session, you will be able to:

  • Choose the style of meeting that best suits your purpose.
  • Identify what is required to prepare and deliver an effective meeting.
  • Perform purposeful follow-ups that help deliver your meeting’s purpose.
