  • Kevin Hoffman shares his own concept of maximizing meetings and divides all the meetings into three categories, or "three flavors": quick meetings, business meetings and working sessions. By remembering some basic principles for each meeting type, we can make them more effective and engaging, and even eliminate a few meetings in the process.
  • Mark Sanborn, another meeting guru, has attended over 2400 meetings in the past 24 years. That sounds like a lot of experience, doesn't it? "Done wrong, a meeting can become a front-page example of excess and waste" - says Mr. Sanborn. So, he is here to help us maximize our meetings with these 14 easy tips and tactics.
  • You can never be too prepared going into a meeting and you might as well not go at all if you aren't going to take the time to prepare. Preparation for a meeting is crucial.Why? It’s simple. If you don’t prepare for a meeting, someone else will control it. If you have something important to say, you might not get the chance to share it. Read this story by Robert Pagliarini and learn from his mistakes.
