Better Meetings:
How to Have More Fun and Be More Effective When You Gather
Part of the Library 2.0 Service, Safety, and Security / Essential Librarian Series with Crystal Trice, hosted by Dr. Steve Albrecht
OVERVIEW:
We spend up to a third of our time at work in meetings. Unfortunately, much of that time is spent watching the clock and thinking that this meeting could have been an email. This webinar will equip you with a toolkit of tips and tricks to transform your library meetings from “have-to” to “get-to” events. You will leave with practical strategies to make your meetings more engaging, productive, and (actually!) enjoyable.
LEARNING AGENDA:
- How to craft a purpose statement for all types of meetings
- Ideas for matching meeting agenda and methods to serve that meeting’s purpose
- Time-tested techniques to help facilitate inclusive meetings that stay on track
- Best practices for summarizing meeting outcomes and assigning tasks for accountability
- Ways to proactively change meeting culture at your library from any role within the organization
This 60-minute overview session on is another in our “Essential Librarian Series,” designed to be shown to new staff and leaders and to provide a refresher for all who work in the library. The presentation slides will be available to all who participate.
