This practical, comprehensive guide to designing and running more effective meetings will result in less time wasted, more collaborative decision-making, and measurably improved business outcomes.
This valuable resource lays out a structured method for designing and leading better meetings. Its facilitative approach marks a transition from the leader as “the expert with the answers” to a new world where the leader's job is to ask the right questions and manage context. To ask the right questions, facilitators need access to a wide range of tools and expertise to match the tool with the situation. With facilitative tools properly applied, leaders can build consensus around important questions, creating buy-in among team members and stakeholders, which will make their work so much more effective. At the end of every meeting, the participants, not the presenter, will own the content, which is key. Used correctly, these resources can help build a culture of engagement and motivation. This book is an easy-to-navigate catalog of tools collected and tested by the MG Rush Facilitation consultancy to provide evidence-based results.
