Put a stop to meetings that waste employees' valuable time.
There's no getting around it. Meetings are a way of life in today's organizations where teams demand a high level of involvement and communication. But they don't have to be a waste of time.
We've Got to Stop Meeting Like This! shares a "how-to" formula for meeting management. It will show your staff how to turn even the most misdirected meeting into an organized, productive session where participants are valued, focused, and involved.

Synopsis
The action opens on a meeting that has been "hijacked" by Carl, a long winded accountant who has participants yawning, composing grocery lists, and thinking of reasons why they need to leave. It is the first of many challenges the meeting facilitator must resolve-from handling difficult personalities to sorting out objectives and plotting a clear course for action.
Through the course of this entertaining dramatization of a real meeting, your employees will learn how to save time by holding only necessary meetings, by starting and ending meetings at agreed-upon times, and by asking participants to come prepared. The video will help employees communicate better and use company resources (such as time!) as efficiently and effectively as possible.
