Facilitation
- Did you ever go to a conference where you sat through boring presentations but were happy to be there because you made some really useful contacts and conversations over coffee and in the evening?
- Do you attend meetings where many of the topics are not relevant to you personally?
- Do you participate in regular but badly run conference calls?
- Do people always have urgent reasons for not attending your team meetings?
If you are involved in international events, conferences, meetings and conference calls, you already know the challenges
- Meetings and conference calls are often poorly run and ineffective
- It can be hard to keep everyone engaged and involved
- There are so many topics to discuss that it is hard to finish the agenda
- Timekeeping is a constant challenge
- Different levels of international English can cause problems with communication
- Different cultures have different expectations and behaviours in conferences and meetings
- PowerPoint slides have run wild
No wonder that people are generally dissatisfied with the quality of the meetings they attend.
Communication is getting out of control, with the average manager receiving over 130 incoming messages a day (email, phone, text etc...). In some organisations, email alone is taking up 20% of total staff time.
Our consultants are extremely experienced facilitators who work with multi-cultural groups on a daily basis. We can show you how to organise and run much more effective international events - from conferences for hundreds of people through to reengineering the regular conference calls for your team.
If you need to reduce the amount and increase the quality of communication or coordination in your organisation or team then call us now to find out how we can help.
