WE WORK HARD TO BE MORE PRODUCTIVE AND AVOID WASTING TIME. THEREFORE, THE MEETINGS WE HAVE SHOULD BE IMPORTANT. In order to make the best use of our time, we need to be efficient. Our main goal is to increase productivity and avoid wasting time. Therefore, it is important that the meetings we have are meaningful and necessary. Unlike the story of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf,” we want our meeting attendees to understand the value of our work. We show them by setting a good example. Over time, they realize that our meetings are held for important reasons. When attendees know that our meetings are productive, respectful (in terms of length and content relevance), and serve a purpose, they are happy to attend and contribute their best. This class will help participants organize their ideas and communicate clearly. As facilitators, you will learn to be concise and communicate with confidence.
