MAFN's June 7th Online Workshop: Leading Engaging Meetings

Duration: 90-minute workshop

About the workshop: 

Participants will identify elements of an effective meeting and learn how to choose appropriate meeting facilitation formats and consensus building processes (brainstorming, prioritizing, etc.) to lead meetings effectively. They will learn how to identify problem participants and tactics to redirect tangents and derailers.

• Identify elements of an effective meeting
