How to Run a Successful Meeting--in Half the Time
This book tackles America's biggest office headache -- meetings. It gives you dozens of time-slashing, result-producing strategies that cover every aspect of business meetings and have been office-tested by some of America's top managers and executives. Tells you how to: avoid unnecessary meetings by offering alternative solutions; focus a meeting's objectives by defining your own goals; avoid time-consuming explanations by putting the details in a handout; get the decision makers on your side before the meeting; put an end to rambling debates by calling for "the vote"; and make sure people bring well-thought-out ideas to follow-up meetings.
