Why Choose CMA’s Workshop?

Our one day training workshop Managing Meetings explores the keys to successful meetings. Participants learn how to prepare and facilitate dynamic meetings that lead to meaningful action.

We shift participants from seeing meetings as pointless and unproductive, to understanding them as opportunities for engagement and action. This workshop provides the structure and tools for participants to turn their next meeting into a high-impact experience.

This workshop will enable you to:

  • Increase productivity by establishing clear objectives for meetings, with good processes for sharing information and making decisions.
  • Reduce apathy and frustration by minimising wasted time.
  • Use a systematic process for analysing and resolving issues.
  • Effectively manage ‘difficult moments’ and get meetings back on track.
  • Conduct meetings that are collaborative, enjoyable and effective.

To enhance the implementation of the skills learned, CMA workshops include the following:

  • A pre-workshop survey.
  • Planning templates.
  • Post-workshop commitment sheets to remind of their learning.
  • Fortnightly emails to remind participants of the theory.
  • Access to CMA’s Alumni website.
  • 12-month access to CMA’s e-coaching hotline.
