When is a Meeting not a Meeting?
Certain types of meeting shouldn’t be classed as meetings in the way we intend in this course.
These are:
Sales presentations
Briefings
Here’s why.
Presentations and briefings are mainly concerned how you deliver a set piece to an audience of, say, customers or press, or workforce.
No interaction required on the part of the audience, other than a short Q&A at the end. The audience are expected to understand what they’re told, then go do it.
The sort of meetings we’re more concerned with on this course are meetings where a group are involved in working together to achieve an agreed task, and each person is expected to make a contribution.
However if your briefings or presentations do involve opportunities for genuine dialogue and ideas, then read on. |
