Meetings Matter

Ranging from face-to-face meetings to webcasts and video conferencing, meetings are an integral part of business life in the 21st century. If handed correctly, they need not be a strain.

The purpose of this course is to provide delegates with an understanding of the following:



• The role of the chairperson

• The role of the secretary

• Attendance at meetings

• Quorums

• Preparing for meetings

• Agenda

• Managing the meeting

• Behaviour at meetings

• Listening skills
• Negotiation skills

• Decisions

• Actions

• Minutes



Delegates will benefit from tuition from a facilitator who has spent many years managing, organising and executing meetings and has been a chairperson and committee secretary in leading institutions.

At the end of the session, each delegate will be provided with a comprehensive booklet that delves deeper into meeting etiquette.

Benefits for organisations:

• More effective execution of meetings

• More effective decision-making

• Better understanding of roles and functions

• Better understanding of different cultures

• Increased motivation

• Improved team working
