Meetings are a necessary part of every project manager’s (and agilists’) day. However, as important as these events are (yes, meetings are events!), they are frequently poorly run and leave both meeting leaders and attendees dissatisfied.

This can be detrimental to the project because of inherent miscommunication or non-communication, to say nothing of the reputation of the project leader. In this session, attendees will learn the fundamentals of good meeting management starting with having a good agenda to being “large and in charge” to dealing with meeting goblins – those nasty personalities that sometimes emerge during meetings.

The increasing role of AI in meeting facilitation will also be discussed.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the importance of planning for your meetings and your projects – and how this impacts your project team
• Recognize and deal with disruptive meeting behavior and gain tips on how to prevent others from hijacking your meeting.
• Differentiate online meeting facilitation skills from those needed for face-to-face meetings
• Identify ways in which AI can be (and has already been) made part of meeting facilitation

As a leader, you’re barraged with problems every day, and sometimes it’s easier to take the path of least resistance.

You don’t speak up because it might rock the boat. You procrastinate on a decision or don’t try that new idea because you’re afraid of failure. Or, you don’t invite feedback because you might not like what you hear.

In these moments, you’re missing opportunities, you’re wasting money, and you’re eroding your team members’ trust.

Building your reputation as a courageous leader doesn’t necessarily mean making big, bold, game-changing moves. It happens every day, little by little, as you own your team members’ strengths, speak up, stand out, and dare to take appropriate risks.

In this program Karin Hurt & David Dye give you practical methods to become a bit more daring every day for greater influence and impact—to become the courageous leader you would want to work for.

Learning Objectives:

• Practical approaches to show up as a more authentic, courageous leader
• Tools for gathering and responding to feedback
• Techniques to prepare for and hold courageous conversations up, down, and sideways
