Course description
If your role requires you to lead inclusive, engaging meetings to manage a project, gain input, solve problems or make decisions, having a foundation in meeting facilitation skills is critical to your success. The ability to be able to engage all participants, keep dialogue on track and on time has never been more important given the drastic increase in virtual, in-person or hybrid meetings post pandemic.
