If you’d like to take back control of your meetings, rather than let them control you, it could be time you review your meeting systems from a global perspective.
You’ll be pleased to know there’s a Meeting Management System to guide you each step of the way.
I can’t promise you it will be easy, as you’ll probably get pushback. I can’t promise you’ll master the new system in 1, 2 or even 3 weeks. BUT I can promise you that the system is practical, and once others see the positive outcomes due to the changes made, it gets a whole lot easier.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and your organisation’s meeting culture won’t change overnight either.
Great meetings don’t just happen. A lot of work goes on behind the scenes.
The meeting manager or organiser rarely gets thanked or recognised, but they’re the powerhouse behind the success of every productive, highly effective meeting. Not every meeting chair or leader is easy to work with. The more organised you are as meeting manager, the easier it is to manage difficult situations.
On a surprising, yet positive note, the many challenges the pandemic presented to workplaces during lockdowns actually forced us to relook at how we manage the logistics of meetings.
And guess what happened?
So that workers could still get their main tasks done, two areas naturally reduced in time, without the quality of the work being compromised. In fact, outputs increased.
The 2 areas staff spent less time on were emails and meetings.
The office still functioned, decisions got made, work got done, no one fell off a cliff.
Result – The less you work, the more productive you become.
It sounds counterintuitive, doesn’t it?
The beauty of David Price’s Meeting Management System is that it follows this philosophy. The reason processes are streamlined for every facet of the organisation, is because David Price’s system is built on hands-on experience every step of the way.
He knows what you MUST DO and also WHAT YOU CAN LEAVE OUT.
And everyone in the office is happy.
David Price’s vast experience on anything to do with meetings for 35+ years
David sees things from a global perspective in all aspects of what is required in the meeting cycle.
There’s a huge science of knowledge behind the meeting cycle of…
Before ~~ During ~~ After ~~ meeting tasks and actions
This makes it difficult to implement change when it’s constantly in motion. So how can you implement lasting change whilst keeping the meeting cycle on track?
This is the dilemma for us all. The meeting tasks could be the responsibility of an already overstretched EA or PA, or perhaps it falls to the meeting chairperson or meeting facilitator, or it could be split between roles.
The reality is, our long to-do list only gets longer. The key to streamlining processes is by deciding what tasks are the most important, and by following a solid, tried and tested meeting system.
David Julian Price’s Meeting Management System for meeting organisers not only saves you time, but it will also save you lots of hassle.
Once you’ve mastered the new system you’ll be super organised
Colleagues will think you’re amazing, the team will be energised
