Ask the Meeting Guru

I've discovered "one-stop shopping" for all your questions about planning and executing meetings. The Meeting Guru answers questions like these:

 

-How to brainstorm in a teleconference?

-What if your boss is always late?

-How to establish and keep time limits?

 

Make the Meeting Guru part of your facilitation skills library!
Where is the Power, and What is the Point?
Dinesh Paliwal, CEO of Harman International Industries, shared his philosophy on slideshows with the NY Times:

"Whenever you're going to talk to investors, to management, to the board, or at quarterly meetings, (you should) write your presentation first. It may be five or six pages. Then (make it) one page. Then (make it) half a page. If you can't explain it to me without slides, you haven't understood the issue."

For your next presentation, try shrinking the number of slides by two-thirds. See if this helps you to speak with more clarity and precision.
