Examples of business meetings
Just so we know what we’re talking about when we say “meetings” let’s take a check on them.
As we know, meetings can be of many types, but the most common are:
- Client meetings, such as meeting new clients, major account presentations, client discussions or buyer negotiations.
- Project meetings where the next stage of a project is being worked out or progressed.
- Assessments and reviews, which can include staff assessment, team reviews or systems monitoring and review
- Trouble-shooting meetings for when something has gone wrong, or where something needs additional focus to ensure that nothing does go wrong.
Types of “meeting” not included in this list are:
- Presentations
- Briefings
We’ll explain this more in the next section.
Exercise 4:
Quickly write down the types of meetings you attend.
