"They are, more often than not, an utter waste of time. They're usually boring beyond endurance. They can drag on forever. Nothing ever seems to get accomplished, decided, or solved. No one, including you, really wants to attend them. And the next one is scheduled for 10 a.m. tomorrow..." "If this describes your company's meetings as accurately as it describes most business meetings, help is at hand! Here's the ultimate guide to ending the time and productivity drain of inefficient meetings and replacing them with well-planned, dynamic, and productive ones that include today's newest and most exciting multimedia presentations." "Written by 3M's winning team of meeting management experts - considered the best in the business at helping companies prioritize and streamline business meetings - Mastering Meetings will save you time, expense, and redundancy by providing answers to such questions as: Is this meeting really necessary? Who should attend? When and where should the meeting be held? How long should the meeting be? What is the best room arrangement? How can you most effectively present your ideas to the group?" "Full coverage also is given to the latest techniques and equipment for creating dynamic multimedia presentations, as well as inexpensive, high-impact visuals - charts, tables, graphs, and more - using PCs, plain paper copiers, and infrared transparencies. You'll learn what makes a good visual and how to use visuals to get messages across lucidly and emphatically." "In addition, you'll learn how to change the meeting room from a battle arena to a workshop; develop participation skills in all your employees; conduct multilingual meetings; develop and deliver powerful presentations; understand meeting dynamics, and make them work for you rather than against you; and much more!"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
