Meetings, bloody meetings: Making meetings more productive is a completely interactive and visually stimulating course. Suitable for anyone who might be expected to organise and run meetings in their current or future role. This course defines the five disciplines that transform a gathering into a professionally run business meeting.

In a nightmarish court, a cynical manager is found guilty of failure to prepare himself and inform others of what a meeting was about (even omitting to invite all the relevant people); failure to plan the agenda; failure to control the discussion and failure to record the decisions.

The judge demonstrates how the rules for running a meeting parallel those of a court, and explains the chaos that would result if he ran his court in the same way.

The nightmare is so vivid that the guilty-as-charged manager resolves to apply the rules as will your organisation's people when they view this very memorable, sharply observed parable. The key learning points are dealt with in clearly-defined segments that can be reviewed and discussed. The humorous content will engage the attention of learners aiding learning.
