Whether for work or our personal interests, we each belong to organisations and need to attend meetings. But they can be so... (let's just say it): BORING! - often long, rambling and seemingly aimless. Can't something be done about them? The answer is YES, and you as a meeting participant are an important part of that. This course looks at the problem and gives you 10 practical tips to make the meeting that you attend a better experience for you and others.
