Your Organization Doesn't Have a Meeting Problem. It Has a Meeting Culture Problem.

Meetings are where organizations make decisions, solve problems, align teams, and move important work forward.

But when meetings aren't designed and facilitated effectively, the opposite happens.

Calendars fill. Decisions take longer. The same conversations happen repeatedly. A few voices dominate while others disengage. Action items disappear after the meeting—and employees begin treating meetings as something to endure rather than a place where meaningful work gets done.

Eventually, organizations fall into the meeting trap: spending more and more time in meetings while getting less and less value from them.

Join David Stargel, CEO of Leadership Strategies, for a practical look at what ineffective meetings are really costing your organization—and what leaders can do to raise the standard.

You'll explore the behaviors and organizational habits that quietly undermine meeting effectiveness, what masterful meetings do differently, and how organizations can begin building a culture where meetings consistently produce engagement, clarity, decisions, and action.

What You'll Learn

In this session, you'll discover:

✓ The hidden organizational costs of ineffective meetings—including lost time, reduced engagement, slower decisions, and weak follow-through

✓ The common behaviors and meeting practices that quietly drain productivity and energy

✓ The 10 Meeting Rights that establish a higher standard for how people should experience meetings

✓ What separates an ordinary meeting from a masterful facilitated session

✓ Practical techniques for improving participation, clarity, decision-making, accountability, and follow-through

✓ How leaders can begin changing meeting culture at the individual, team, department, and organizational level

✓ A roadmap for building facilitation capability across an organization so better meetings become the standard—not the exception

Who Should Attend

This webinar is ideal for:

  • Executives and senior leaders concerned about organizational productivity and effectiveness
  • HR, Learning & Development, and Organizational Development leaders
  • Managers responsible for improving team performance and collaboration
  • Project and program leaders whose success depends on productive group decision-making
  • Internal facilitators and meeting leaders
  • Organizations looking to strengthen facilitation capability across teams and departments
  • Anyone who believes their organization is spending too much time in meetings—and getting too little in return

From Better Meetings to a Stronger Organization. Improving one meeting is valuable. Changing how an organization meets can transform how it works.

You'll leave with practical ideas for raising the standard of meetings across your team or organization.
