Meetings that Do More: An Online Workshop by New Directions Collaborative

Imagine leaving a meeting feeling inspired, energized by new ideas, with enhanced goodwill toward your colleagues and a shared sense of clarity on where to go next. In this interactive online workshop, you will learn practical tools for creating meetings that deliver multiple benefits. Key topics include:

  • How to clarify the strategic context and range of outcomes for a meeting
  • How to frame strategic questions for the group to explore
  • An introduction to, and experience of, participatory meeting methods that can also work on line
  • How to structure an agenda with samples of agenda designs

This online workshop will be held on Zoom video conference, where you will experience how to host effective meetings virtually, including with small group conversations. You will get several handouts full of resources and guidance to help you design and facilitate future meetings.
