Ahh, Meetings: the great alternative to work. As conventional wisdom goes, if you want to be busy, do nothing, produce little to nothing, and yet get paid, set up and attend meetings.
Large companies spend millions of dollars on SAP, ERP, Quality, and ISO processes, but do these practices really work? Or, are they like the latest medical wonder drug before the recall because of bad side effects? Such processes can create an approach to work but they only work equal to the leadership’s ability to implement and utilize the process intelligently and appropriately. How do you intelligently and appropriately implement these processes through meetings?

Meetings, meetings everywhere but not an agenda to be found! (Gatto, 2016)
Ahh, Meetings: the great alternative to work. As conventional wisdom goes, if you want to be busy, do nothing, produce little to nothing, and yet get paid, set up and attend meetings.
Meetings PowerPoint Presentation Content slides include topics such as: why meetings are unproductive, 7 group roles and behaviors, effective meeting notes, 6 guidelines for effective meetings, information sharing/gathering, recognizing resistance to accepting change, phases of change transition, problem solving meetings, decision making, before the meeting, agenda and goals, during the meeting, running effective meetings, after the meeting, common scheduling problems, scheduling hints, taking minutes, how to's and much more.
Great things happen when people come together.
Face-to-face interaction is the platform where deals are struck, relationships are forged and ideas are generated.
That’s what Meetings Mean Business is all about: showing the real power of what business meetings, conferences, conventions, incentive travel, trade shows and exhibitions collectively do for people, businesses and communities.
When gathering a team together to advance a particular project, you want to ensure the meeting is as efficient and effective as possible.
Statistics show that not only do people spend a lot of time in business meetings, but almost half of those surveyed stated that "unfocused" meetings were their biggest workplace time waster.This presentation will offer tips on how to run more effective meetings .
When did you last join a work-related meeting that was productive and fun from the beginning till the end? That is, a meeting that had lucid objectives and a well-designed agenda; engaged all participants all the time; made them laugh; reached decisions; clarified follow-up actions; and secured commitment to achieve expected, positive, and constructive outcomes? Can you remember?
Meetings are essential in any form of human enterprise. These days, they are so common that turning the resources they tie up into sustained results is a priority in high-performance organizations. This is because they are potential time wasters: the other persons present may not respect their own time as much as you have come to respect yours, and it is therefore unlikely that they will mind wasting your time. Generic actions before, during, and after can make meetings more effective.
The Conducting Effective Meetings training program can be offered to Corporate Clients, SMEs, Private and Public establishments across India. All our programs are customized to suit the participants’ training needs. A detailed Training Design Document will be sent before the implementation of this training program.

A very quick and practical guide on how to prepare for, run and follow up with your meetings. This is designed to be a lecture for business communication class. Yet it is very hands on and it can be used as a training session as well.
There are several aspects to meetings: when to have them, who to invite, what structure and format to take and what type of meeting to run.
But first, why do we have meetings?
“Meetings are an opportunity and framework to get resolution, reach conclusion, share ideas and move forward – for those leading the meeting AND those attending”.
Find 5 things you can do to run more effective meetings.
Improving Meetings and Meeting ProductivityBarry Cole
The lessons learned through twenty years leading meetings of various types around the globe. I have included as an addendum some recent sourced materials from others that may be of value in improving the value of meetings.
What is today’s leadership struggle? It seems people with loud voices are overshadowing true leaders. The loud bombastic attackers, those who label others are being called leaders. In some ways loud bombastic leaders show some of the above defined leadership qualities, but really are self-serving idealogues (fanciful untruthful ideals) and do not care about nor support followers.
Can you have a leader without any followers? No, followers fulfill the definition of leadership. Leaders need to have: goals, followers who actively support goal achievement, and followers who know how to take the right actions. The leader follower relationship is fulfilled when both are knowledgeable, open, caring, approachable, supportive, transparent in communication, committed to take the right actions, and authentic. Followership is defined as the willingness to cooperate in working toward the accomplishment of defined goals while demonstrating a high degree of interactive teamwork. Effective followers are active participants (partners) in creating and fulfilling the leadership process. Followers permit leaders to establish and keep themselves in control of a situation that is productive, efficient, goal oriented, and people-oriented. Once during an interview, I was asked if leadership is measurable. I said yes, leaders can turn around to see if anyone is following, goals are achieved, and people are energized.
Resilience is the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, or significant sources of stress. Resilience means bouncing back from difficulties.
The philosopher Epictetus said “we suffer not from the events in our lives but from our judgment about them”
The coaching process may pay great dividends in developing employee present needs, creating a group of future leaders, supporting employee satisfaction, and creating a talent pool for a succession plan. Coaching is a partnership in which the trained and experienced coach guides and develops the coachees to achieve goals. The coach helps the coachees think of what they had not thought of, said, dreamed or created. The coach helps to expand coachee thinking and experience life in new ways. The coaching process supports an increased awareness by the coachees to understand what they are doing right and to develop alternative thinking and acting.
Leadership studies indicate that as much as 26% of what it takes to be promoted and be an effective executive depends on Executive Presence (Center for Talent Innovation, www.talentinnovation.org). What is Executive Presence? It is “looking and acting the part,” and can depend on specific leadership organizational cultures. Executive presence is not just a construct of a position but is predicated upon how a person presents him/her self. The communication of issues, responses and reactions to situations, and the impact a person has on an organization are part of the executive presence concept.
Why choose the topic of Lousy Leaders? Most of us say that we want to follow the Great Leaders, that we struggle to find Great Leaders with character, who care about people and their organizations. However, we say that those who are most prominent are the leaders who only support themselves and want to satiate hidden desires of power, acquisition, recognition, and accolades for themselves. One of the problems with Lousy Leaders is how they acquire their positions! Maybe accepting Lousy Leaders is part of a new standard in our new society. Society appears to support or create a level of leadership acceptance. Chosen leaders seem to replicate and be predicated on our society. Based on this idea, we are a society in turmoil and one of divisiveness. Do you think Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt or Churchill would thrive in this society? Do we, in actuality, support Great Leadership whose proponents exhibit visionary competence, integrity, morality, inclusive growth and development of followers, fairness, and humanistic care of others? Or, do we support the acceptance of political pandering and the desire to have some kind of tribal loyalty, even if it is to a Lousy Leader? In this age of emotional isolation brought about by over-reliance on devices, belonging to something, anything, gives people a group identity, the “us versus them” ideology.
As we watch corporate and political leaders navigate the obstacles of the present day, we are struck by how many leaders are truly lousy. Definition of a Lousy Leader, an intimidator who accuses, who doesn’t listen, is not organized, presents no vision, does not build relationships, takes credit for everyone’s work, does not motivate, and is an impromptu speaker. What are the secrets of lousy leaders? What do lousy leaders all have in common?
Trying to understand how organizations work is a topic of many books and articles. As these authors point out, each organization has distinct strengths, limitations, and unique processes for providing products, technology, and services. An organization may be defined as two or more people focused toward common goals. Yet as organizations become larger, the focus toward the common organizational goals becomes more departmentalized and less organizationally focused. To lose sight of the organizational goals in favor of day-to-day performance and money is a predicament for leaders. The lack of common direction causes organizations to lose time, money and customers.
Millennial managers and executives are confronted with an aging workforce that is well established in a performance status quo. New technologies are driving change in the workplace and many employees from the aging workforce are putting in time until they retire. What should the millennial manager/executive do to be effective and maintain and enhance productivity and efficiencies? The majority of the employees are older than the millennial managers and executives. There are always new projects that have to be completed and tasks delegated to others within the organization, and many times employees do not have a sense of urgency, or don't really listen to the project deliverables until the X or boomer director steps in and leads the project. Millennials have been placed in a precarious position since technology has thrust them into executive management roles. In the technologically driven workplace world, this is an increasing problem as younger yet experienced millennial managers come on to the scene. Millennial executives are not being disrespectful to anyone, but it's hard when they are trying to get the job done and no one will listen!
What is an Indecisive Leader? What do leaders do that make them indecisive? Do indecisive leaders know they are indecisive or is it their style of leading? Indecisiveness is the inability or reluctance to make decisions in general or to come to a decision about something in particular thereby producing no clear results. What causes a leader to be indecisive, not wanting to make a decisive choice? Most likely it is the conscious or unconscious ideation that by not making a definitive choice, the leader cannot be ridiculed for a decision, moving in a given direction, and or for the consequences of decisive action.
Over the years I have encountered many people in leadership positions who are totally ineffective. Why? Is it because they are not bright, not passionate presenters, and or not able to build strong relationships? Generally, these characteristics alone do not condemn one to a lifetime of ineffectiveness. In fact, the Ineffective Leader could be very bright, articulate and benevolent or well liked but still ineffective. How can that be, and why do Ineffective Leaders not know they are ineffective? The answer is that many leaders are confused as to what leadership is. Leadership does not always require rendering opinions or stating ideas with confidence in meetings, nor is it an acquired organizational position. There are many people in leadership positions that effectively communicate ideas but do nothing. They communicate doom and gloom, creating a culture of crisis, indicating that a disaster is pending and all need to fight to survive but they never lead the fight. That burns employees out, and the Ineffective Leaders go on their unsuccessful ways, never communicating the solution. If you build an army of 100 lions and their leader is a dog, in any fight the lions will die like a dog. But if you build an army of 100 dogs and their leader is a lion, all dogs will fight like a lion. Napoleon Bonaparte
What is a Fake Leader (FL)? It is someone disguised as a person in a leadership position who focuses on self and not the organization or ultimate good of people. It’s someone caught in minutia and is incapable of seeing the big picture, someone who misses the needed day-to-day facts to support growth and well-being of people and the organization. A person in a leadership position, who renders opinions without substance, does not inspire followers to achieve a vision, nor inspire followers to want to work together as a team. Fake Leaders talk a good game and produce very little. They are focused on self, money, and self-aggrandizement. They confuse a vision of hope with threatening statements and forecast a better place for followers through half-truths and retracted statements, with promises that we will be told the rest of the story in a few days.
Do you ever wonder how some people get promoted to a leadership position? Who did these people know to become a VP or Director in the organization? Billions of dollars are spent on training present and future leaders: there are special events for executives at prestigious universities, full day trainings for middle managers, but how is that benefiting the employees in the workplace? Executives get sent to warm places in the winter and cool places in the summer. How is that advancing the workplace and helping employees grow and develop? Who holds leaders accountable for follow-up debriefs or action plans from executive/partner/manager retreats and or full-day trainings? Have you ever had executives or managers come back to your office from a workshop, a retreat or a training session and relate what they learned and how it will make the workplace better for all? New supervisors want to start their careers and follow in the footsteps of the present leaders. What kind or role models are in the workplace today? There are some great leaders but those lousy leaders seem to overshadow them. With all the money spent on leadership training, one would think leaders would be: brilliant, philosophical, kind hearted, understanding, caring, competent, confident, people-oriented role models, and mentors who are compassionate. However, all too often we see lousy leaders who are self-oriented, greedy, who waste time in unproductive meetings, unable to appropriately give feedback and are only fair presenters who do not inspire. Many people in leadership positions think because they are knowledgeable, they can lead. Here is the truth about lousy leaders.
A group is comprised of individuals who meet to discuss issues, problem solve, or to inform. A real team, however, is defined as people coming together for a common purpose, setting clear goals, and establishing priorities. The team leader and team members define roles for individual members, utilizing individual strengths and nurturing synergism (working together) to create a unified plan of action in order to achieve identified and measured results. Team members learn to depend and rely on other team members to demonstrate their talents and support the team.
Is Performance Appraisal: Salary Justification or Employee Development? Gatto Associates, LLC.
Is Performance Appraisal: Salary Justification or Employee Development?
I was coaching a mid-level executive last week and we together reviewed his performance appraisal document that had just been given to him by his boss. In fact, his performance appraisal was anything but an appraisal of his performance!
What does it mean to work with a generation? What is a generation? A generation is generally understood as people who were born in a similar time frame, who have experienced similar life situations, share similar views, attitudes and maybe values which differ from other generations. Great events, traumatic events and unique situations define our experiences and alter out thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Examples of such accounts can include WWI, Depression, bombing of Pearl Harbor, WWII, Korean War, Polio vaccination, assassinations of the Kennedys and King, Walk on the Moon, Vietnam War, computer revolution, Twin Towers, shootings in schools, Super bowls, Presidential elections, special New Year’s Eve parties and so on. My grandmother grew up in the depression and was concerned about such things as lights being on in a room that no one was in and running the water full blast – and to me, these seem inconsequential, even trivial. The events such as those listed above can influence us in positive and negative ways and in the way we think about other nationalities and religions, the workplace, values on how we parent, use of technologies, education, the value we place on others, and even how we try to protect ourselves.
What Causes Anxiety in the Workplace?
How often do we stop and think about how much time, effort, energy is given to our performance of fulfilling job responsibilities? That is fulfilling work responsibilities at the office, driving to and from work, and at home. How often do we feel frustrated because we cannot accomplish all that we want, or need to accomplish? How often do we feel held back from doing the level and quality of work that we expect from ourselves? Have you called off work lately because you just can’t take it? Do you feel stressed out but don’t want to see anyone about it because it is a sign of weakness?
It was only Tuesday afternoon and already things were piling up for next week. You just came back from a long lunch with your boss and peer team, walked into your office, and plopped into the chair. Looking at the afternoon schedule, you feel overwhelmed. If only you could walk outside for a few minutes, recharge, come back full swing and raring to go. Then reality hits and you know that if you did that, you would be just delaying the inevitable and would come back to more work and less time. Panic sets in when you realized how much work you have to do: your team had six people, and your boss keeps asking you to do more. You have no one to delegate to. You agonize over not having enough time and letting your family down. Stress is your constant companion.
You need to devote more time at work, but then home life suffers. You devote time to home life, and work suffers: this is the Time Seesaw. How can you effectively balance home and work, and still have time for yourself? Impossible, you think, but…. perhaps not.
How to Engage a Poor Performing Employee
More often than not, the reason for poor performance is because the employee does not know what is expected. Both employee and boss may be under the mis-apprehension that the employee goals and expectations are clear. Sure, clear as mud!
Got a Toxic Boss? What should YOU do?
Frequently poor performing employees are put on a performance improvement plan (PIP) but how many bosses do employees put on a PIP? I am going to recommend that you think of a ninety-day improvement plan for your boss. Yes, a private ninety-day performance improvement plan, for you to see if your boss can be changed and or have the self-awareness of what he/she is not doing well or doing that is toxic.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Too Many Meetings! Meetings, Meetings, and More Meetings?
1. Meetings, Meetings, and More Meetings?
Rex Gatto Ph.D., BCC
Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink! (Coleridge, Rime of the Ancient Mariner,
1834)
Meetings, meetings everywhere but not an agenda to be found! (Gatto, 2016)
Ahh, Meetings: the great alternative to work. As conventional wisdom goes, if you want to be
busy, do nothing, produce little to nothing, and yet get paid, set up and attend meetings.
Large companies spend millions of dollars on SAP, ERP, Quality, and ISO processes, but do
these practices really work? Or, are they like the latest medical wonder drug before the recall
because of bad side effects? Such processes can create an approach to work but they only work
equal to the leadership’s ability to implement and utilize the process intelligently and
appropriately. How do you intelligently and appropriately implement these processes through
meetings?
For a team to achieve success from a project, a developmental process, or a problem-solving
session, meetings are an essential traveling partner. Little will be accomplished without effective
meetings that create a mutual understanding and process for follow-up and implementation.
Meetings that are boring and de-energizing are certainly not effective! Part of the cause of
ineffective meetings is that most people don't really understand the purpose of a meeting.
We all think we know something about meetings or how to run a meeting because we have
attended meetings most of our lives, just like all those rabid fans who know how to coach
basketball because they have sat in the stands watching the games. However, just like the good
2. basketball coach, meetings require more than just “sitting in the stands.” Many have experienced
meetings as set periods of time to attend (filling up your calendar), sit (wiggle into a seat), and
listen (while viewing emails via your phone), followed by positive and negative comments in the
hallway on your way to the bathroom. The skilled leader, like the winning basketball coach,
knows that a meeting is a business event to exchange insights, develop a plan, get buy-in, and
accomplish results and implementation of the plan.
Below are some pointers to help you be a winning meeting leader and attendee:
To begin, the meeting should have four parts:
1. Planning - create a clear purpose for the meeting with a focus and goals
2. Introduction – outline what is going to be accomplished, explain the purpose for each
individual attending the meeting, set the ground rules to follow and have an agenda
3. Interaction – identify and clarify the need for the meeting by presenting, facts, topics
and topic facilitators
4. Summary – Explain what the take-a-ways are from the meeting, and outline the actions,
decisions, people involved and timeline for action
5. Recap each goal and focus
For a meeting to be effective, all must have a voice, either by their own willingness to give input
or by the meeting leader asking for input.
A meeting should have a facilitator or leader who plays an active role in staying on topic,
involving people, accomplishing the goals for the meeting and ensuring there is a connection to
past and future meetings.
Those attending need to come in with open minds (no hidden agendas such as the meeting is a
waste and I will go off on a tangent, or I am the person who knows most about this topic, or
these meetings are a waste and nothing ever good comes these meeting). Change your attitude
and maybe the meeting will be productive.
A meeting leader should always prepare questions ahead of time. Based on the topics to be
covered, a meeting leader should prepare 2 or 3 questions to gain the insights, thoughts, feelings,
and responses of those in attendance.
In preparation, the meeting leader should know whom the influencers and decisions-makers are
based on the people who are attending and plan to facilitate to achieve input from all in the
meeting.
An agenda (a plan) for the meeting should be written.
There are three parts to a meeting agenda:
• Advanced planner
• Interactive meeting and note taking
3. • Follow-up action based on the decisions within the meeting
Advanced Planner (pre-meeting agenda):
• Title of the meeting (what are you calling the meeting you are asking people to attend)
• Time to begin AND time to leave
• Place
• People in attendance
• Purpose for the meeting
• Expected results for the meeting
• Importance of the meeting
Interactive meeting and note taking:
• Topic to be discussed (why)
• Discussion led by (who are the experts to lead and present the discussion topic)
• Time allotted for the discussion (how long will the topic discussion last)
• No tangent rule: the topic or meeting leaders need to ensure the discussion stays focused
and that the meeting will not be sabotaged in an unplanned or different direction. If a
topic comes up that needs to be discussed, a decision can be made to change the present
agenda or to hold the topic for another meeting
• Before the meeting concludes, ask the meeting participants to discuss three points:
1. What do we agree on?
2. How do you feel about the decisions we made?
3. Are you committed to take any necessary action?
Note taking: There are four general discussion areas on ever topic:
• Decisions
• Key actions
• Time frame to accomplish actions and goals
• People involved
Follow up Action
• Based on the four key areas (decisions, actions, time frame, and people involved),
implementation and change needs to be addressed to tackle all discussed issues to make
the meeting successful.
• As preparation for the next meeting, the actions between meetings become part of the
preparation for the next meeting (the next meeting must not be a rehashing of the last
meeting).
4. A New Way to Think of a Meeting
Take the salaries of all who are in the meeting and add them together. If someone makes
$100,000 a year, s/he makes roughly $50 per hour. If you have ten people in the meeting making
roughly the same salary, the meeting cost per hour is $500, plus what the people in the meeting
would be doing if they were not at the meeting. If there is an effective meeting with follow-up
you get interest on your $500. However, if the meeting is poorly run with no-focus, the principle
of $500 is lost, in addition to lost time doing other (perhaps) more productive work.
All in the workplace should think of themselves as being hourly employees and ask themselves if
their time spent in meetings has benefited the organization.
Gatto Rule: No meetings on Friday - just put closure to the week. I advise my clients to come to
work on Friday and work: talk with anyone you must, but no meetings.
Imagine what the world would be like if water, water everywhere were sparkling pure! So, too,
imagine the business world where meetings, meetings everywhere were productive, business
like, and accomplishing a great deal to support organizational goals!
Go forth and meet, but with a new purpose, an agenda and follow through – just not on Fridays.
