2. TIPS TO AVOID PROBLEMS
1. Set an Agenda and be prepared
“The most effective meetings are ones where the objectives are clear. A simple
statement of what you hope to achieve can shave an average of 17 minutes off
of your meeting.
A basic agenda, shared in advance with any relevant documents, keeps
everyone on track”.

3. 2. Distribute the time frame according to the necessities and aim of
the meeting
A good meeting should be short and precise, touching base on the high risk
points with an appropriate method
“A hyper-effective way to keep everyone conscious of both starting and ending
times. People tend to fill the amount of meeting time they’re given, so I generally
get just as much done in 22 minutes as in a standard half-hour meeting”.

4. 3. The facilitator or meeting guide should manage the order of the
meeting, organizing the priorities, questions, special points and the
time slot per person.
“Great meetings happen when you have great leaders. It’s not always easy to be
the one ensuring things are moving along, but someone has to be accountable
for running meetings that don’t suck.
Once you’ve set standards for efficient, effective and entertaining meetings, your
team will follow - and meetings may start to be the best part of your workday.”
