Learn the skills and techniques you need to immediately increase productivity in all types of meetings and group interactions.
Ask employees at your company what they think of meetings, and they'll probably roll their eyes and grumble, yet research shows that managers and team members spend from 20% to 40% of their time in meetings, and salespeople spend more than 40%.
Basic Facilitation is an engaging half-day workshop that teaches facilitators how to run dynamic, effective meetings. Filled with a wealth of invaluable information, the Basic Facilitation video and workbook share practical skills on the meeting process and secrets for increasing productivity and improving group interactions.
