While conducting business meetings, certain things have to be taken care of. Decisions should be based on facts and based on circumstances, they shouldn’t be based on presumptions.
The participants should be optimum in number, not too much. Don’t go off track or don’t forget the agenda of the meeting. Avoid distractions during meetings, such as- looking here and there, talking on phone, fiddling, etc. Decision-making should be unambiguous. Don’t waste time waiting for latecomers. Start discussion on time.
A successful and effective business meeting is one which is well planned. It should be planned well in advance that who all would be the participants in meeting, the time, venue, and agenda of meeting.
The agenda of the meeting should be clear to all. Do not try to make a fish market in meeting. Respect everyone’s views. Respect the leader. Try and co-operate. It has to be ensured that the decisions that are reached through a meeting should be implemented. Also, all participants must get minutes at the end of meeting.
Corporate Meetings tell where the company is and where is it heading. They are communication drivers behind organization’s success. Successful Corporate Meetings are productive, creative, well-focused, timely and well-led.
