Meetings allow us to bring people together to inspire each other, solve problems and make a difference.
Yet, we all spend too much time in dull, frustrating meetings where little is achieved and even less is followed up on afterwards. In Hold Successful Meetings, executive coach and former Google leader Caterina Kostoula will change all this. Her unique framework will:
- Equip you to hold fewer, more purposeful meetings - Create a creative and inclusive environment - Leave participants inspired and ready to take action
Whether virtual or in-person, people will leave your meetings inspired by the value you created together and ready to make an impact.
