As a child, I remember sitting for hours at a time, absorbed in my favorite books.  My mother would enter the living room asking, “Didn’t you hear me call you?”  As I came back to reality, I would answer honestly, “No, mommy I didn’t.”  And that was the complete truth!  That level of concentration is very hard to achieve today.  With noise, interruptions, people, and instant messages, so many things competing for our attention in the workplace that it’s often very difficult to concentrate.  This seminar will improve your ability stay on target and focus on the task at hand.

Meetings, meetings, meetings!  Where minutes are taken and hours are wasted.  Today’s managers and professionals spend so much time attending them…you’d think most would be trained in how to plan and run them.  Not so.  Most meetings frustrate employees, because agendas aren’t distributed, objectives aren’t defined, time runs over, and no decisions are made.  Another two hours of your day down the drain!  This course gives people who call meetings the requisite skills to plan and execute a productive meeting, and follow-up properly afterward.  It also provides the protocols necessary to keep a meeting on the right track, even if you’re just attending.  You will learn to achieve the objectives of the meeting, in a minimum amount of time, in a way that’s satisfying to all participants.
