Management Guide to Running Meetings | | By

from the book | |
| | | High
expectations | | If
you have high expectations of the meeting, it is very likely to achieve results.
| | |
| Less
is more | | When
convening meetings a good maxim to remember is 'Less is more'. Two or three people
frequently produce better results than a gathering of ten or twelve. The more
people attending the meeting, the more control and management are required. |
| | | Take
charge | | You
have it in your power to make a meeting effective, but to do this, you need to
be prepared to take charge. If you do not, you should not expect much to come
of the meeting. | | |
| Next
steps | | Meetings
are a means to an end; they are rarely an end in themselves. The conclusion of
a meeting is usually just the beginning for other activities, even if it is simply
the setting up of another meeting. | | |
