Synopsis:
Facilitating Meetings:
The Forgotten Skill in the Software World
How
often do you cringe running meetings? May be you don't feel the
butterflies, but your meetings don't produce the results you expect to
produce. Your meetings run over the allocated time, and still you did
not discuss everything that should have been discussed. Never let this
happen again.
In this session, you will learn :
1. About different kinds of meetings, their purpose, and how to effectively run them.
2. Various tools at your disposal to facilitate meetings
3. Different methods of facilitation to make your meetings more meaningful
By the end of this session you will know how to make your meetings fun, engaging, and productive.
