Attended any good meetings lately? Probably not. But the next one you lead could be a great one.
Recent advances in helping groups talk together are creating new ways to run better meetings naturally—a structural approach. All meetings have structures that affect how groups behave. In most meetings, this structure goes unconsidered with unfortunate consequences.
Dr. Richard Lent wrote Leading Great Meetings to show you how to use structure to make your meetings much more productive. The right meeting structure helps people talk together effectively without having to remember how to behave. This is different from meeting recommendations that rely on adopting rules or changing behavior … when discussions get heated, people ignore the rules and good behavior is hard to maintain. Structure can create a naturally productive meeting.
The book provides 12 choices and 32 tools to plan and conduct a wide range of meetings. You can select the choices and tools relevant to your situation. Included are stories, examples, even “blueprints,” so you can see how a structural approach works in action.
