Having An Effective MeetingI am involved with a couple of organizations that need to have meetings to make things happen and move an event or goal along. One thing that my experience has taught me is communication is key when working with multiple people. Without communication each department or person involved can not help each other or the business succeed. Staff meetings are very useful if run properly. If not they can become a black hole of poor time management. So what are some of the guidelines for an effective meeting? • A start time Everyone who attends should come with a list of items or questions that they need answered at the staff meeting. This also helps people stay on track. If possible email the agenda prior to the meeting so everyone is aware of what topics will be covered. These simple guidelines can make the difference between a productive meeting or a complete waste of everyone’s time. Let me know what has worked for you and your organization. Leave a comment |

"She was so realistic. Other seminars I’ve been to like this left me feeling like “how will I apply this”, I did not feel this way. I am leaving feeling like I have some good building blocks" Sheri Caslin "I'm editing the Croll Organizing audio series: I keep wanting to hit pause and pull out a whiteboard to start organizing my hats, and I've already tackled some of my scheduling problems -- you bet I would buy this series! It's a good thing I can listen to it again and again." Criss Ittermann Hudson Valley Business Edge 2008: Anthony Church Time Management Seminar: "Very informative. It was upbeat and there was no danger of falling asleep! Thank you for answering all questions" Daniel Benotti "Cindy helps you set goals, allows you the time to modify &/or refine them while breaking them down into bite size tasks. Her desire to understand all elements of my business is helping me start recreating the office of my dreams to better support our rapid growth....I'm looking forward to working with Cindy on an ongoing basis to help us easily handle more projects & deadlines, while making room for my first employee. Croll Organizing is now a strategic partner to help us maintain a workspace focused on helping meeting more clients needs in a shorter space of time....Thanks for your incredible support & amazing services!" Melanie Richards Mary Kay Seminar: Christine McDowel "I can honestly say that hiring you to organize my office was one of the best investments I have ever made. I was sceptical at first, thinking that it would be impossible for you to organize my dest and workflow because you are not an insurance person by trade. Now each monring when I walk into my office I feel energized rather than depressed. I am working much more effectively and efficiently because I am not distracted by piles on my desk...." Cathy Smith McCarty "The difference is incredible!...the daily process…allows me to service clients and prospects at a much greater level of efficiency and all it cost me was time with you. Frankly I feel for what you charged me I received tremendous value. Now I know where everything is all the time. The office functions like a well oiled machine and I am far more productive than I have ever been. And with a lot less down time and stress!" Scott M. Lask "...I can still hold on to my system and be able to put my hand on what I need three or four times faster. It was a very real Eureka moment." Joseph F. Hoffman "Now I have the basic tools that I need to get it together. I went shopping yesterday for the office tools that I will need to start me on the track of being better organized. Thank you so much." Brenda Hall "Cindy created an effective filing system for my company which will increase my productivity and help me to achieve my goals faster and easier. You are a professional in every sense of the word." Katherine G. |
