Why this Course is Important

“Manage everyone’s time well by conducting the best online and in person meetings that generate positive activity and produce tangible results.”

Of all the tasks managers and team leaders need to do well and get right, hosting an in-person, hybrid, or virtual (MS Team or Zoom) meeting is up there when it comes to one of the important and most challenging management tasks.

Why? Well, first of all, there’s the challenge of scheduling everyone, especially when some people are in different locations or states (even countries). Secondly, because your meetings may be considered virtual or hybrid meetings, it’s important to maintain a high level of participation from everyone during each meeting.

Leading Productive (In-Person or Online) Team Meetings (M) will improve the way you chair and lead both online, hybrid as well as in-person team meetings. You’ll learn techniques to improve how you manage everyone’s participation, make important decisions and overcome hurdles and frustrations, so your meeting times go from boring to soaring.
