High Impact Meeting Design and Facilitation
Focus: Engaging, Efficient and Successful High Impact Meeting Design
I partner with clients to create a meeting agenda and process design that leads to desired business results and has a lasting positive impact on team effectiveness.
I can ensure the meeting stays on track, regardless of unplanned circumstances or possible communication struggles or I can flex in the moment to enable the team to deal with important surprises and still achieve meeting objectives.
Together we will:
-
Clarify the overall business context and specific needs the meeting will address.
-
Determine critical stakeholder objectives and concerns
-
Create a high impact meeting design customized to your needs
-
Specify meeting agenda and critical outcomes
-
Explore current team dynamics and how they may impact the meeting.
-
Commit to custom methods to engage meeting participants and build trust and candor
The team leader and I coordinate throughout the meeting to stay on track, address team dynamics and make adjustments on the fly, as needed.
Example High Impact Meetings I have designed and facilitated:
-
Non-Profit Board Retreat with a new Executive Director bringing in a new strategy
-
Strategic Planning Meeting with a high level of strategy disagreement
-
A “fractured” team following the involuntary termination of a popular and influential team member
-
Year beginning meeting for a team with a new leader and 5 new team members
-
Executive Team Leadership effectiveness retreat following two years of significant underperformance
-
Joint venture team meeting between partner organizations with low trust
