Leading an effective meeting takes time, preparation, and effort and entails more than just picking a date and time. Meeting best practices include:
- Inviting the right people
- Creating a collaborative agenda
- Assigning roles during the meeting
- Establishing ground rules
- Using an explicit decision-making process
- Continuously evaluating and improving your meeting
The transition to virtual meetings brought additional best practices and tips such as choosing the right meeting platform, navigating technology, engaging participants meaningfully, and dealing with Zoom fatigue.
While any group can learn from and utilize meeting best practices, sometimes a topic, conflict, or group dynamic is too complex to handle on your own. When this happens, you may want to bring in a trained facilitator.
