Effective meetings have a few key characteristics that you should be able to identify. They are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Inclusive<\/strong>: Everyone in attendance gets to share their ideas, feedback, and suggestions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Collaborative<\/strong>: There\u2019s a sense of trust and rapport that establishes an environment for collaboration and sharing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Strategic<\/strong>: The meeting has a clear purpose that extends beyond information-sharing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Efficient<\/strong>: There\u2019s a clear plan of action and an objective for the time spent together to keep the conversation on track.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When your meeting ticks these boxes, you can be sure that the time you\u2019re spending together as a group is well-spent.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind, however, that it\u2019s easy to veer off track and stray from these core principles in a noisy group setting. For better meeting management, you\u2019ll need to keep everyone involved accountable and in the zone.<\/p>\n<h2>Why effective meeting management matters<\/h2>\n<p>So why does effective meeting management matter, anyway?<\/p>\n<p>Well, consider this: A report in <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2017\/07\/stop-the-meeting-madness\" rel=\"nofollow\"><em>Harvard Business Review<\/em><\/a> illustrated that of 182 senior managers surveyed, 65% said meetings stop them from finishing individual work, while 71% consider most meetings unproductive and inefficient. <em>Yikes<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s more. When meetings aren\u2019t effective, they can be <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/productivity\/3-steps-cycle-to-improve-work-performance\/\">a huge detriment to efficiency and task-related work.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The reason: When people are tied up in meetings, they can\u2019t do anything else. As a result, these poorly planned gatherings can hurt morale and make team members frustrated and stressed out, further hurting their workday productivity. And lost productivity hurts your bottom line: Fuze <a href=\"https:\/\/visual.ly\/community\/infographic\/business\/ugly-truth-about-meetings\" rel=\"nofollow\">data<\/a> shows that ineffective meetings waste an estimated $37 <em>billion<\/em> a year.<\/p>\n<p>Next, let\u2019s look at what can you do in advance of a meeting to be sure you start things off on the right foot.<\/p>\n<h2>Effective meeting preparation<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to effective meeting preparation, there are a few key principles to keep to follow to <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/\">help you and your team<\/a> get the most out of your time together.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Have a set start and end time<\/h3>\n<p>Having a set time frame for both the beginning and end of your meeting helps keep everyone accountable when it comes to time. Don\u2019t leave meetings open-ended, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monday.com\/blog\/productivity\/how-to-hack-parkinsons-law-to-boost-productivity\/\">Parkinson\u2019s Law<\/a> tells us that tasks often expand in complexity to fill the time allotted.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, consider the meeting\u2019s purpose and plan accordingly. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynda.com\/Business-Skills-tutorials\/How-decide-meeting-length\/512778\/584972-4.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">Lynda.com<\/a> data says that most meetings should be 30 minutes or less, except for strategy or brainstorming meetings which can take up to 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Establish an agenda (and distribute it beforehand)<\/h3>\n<p>Using <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/project-management\/meeting-agenda-template\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an agenda<\/a> (or even a short list of bullet points) to map out the topics you\u2019ll need to cover during your meeting helps put everyone on the same page about what has to get done. And by handing it out beforehand, you can get ahead of the game and give everyone a chance to get up to speed, making your meeting time even more productive.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Lolk, Founder of SavvyRevenue, said: \u201cEven if you don\u2019t have a formal agenda, state the purpose of your gathering before the group meets. If you don\u2019t, the meeting will likely become an open-ended brainstorming session with few tangible outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>3. Assign roles for attendees<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t be afraid to delegate responsibilities. Give each person attending a purpose and task they\u2019re responsible for during the meeting so that they\u2019re alert, engaged, and in collaborator mode (rather than falling asleep in their chairs.)<\/p>\n<p>Without a task during the meeting, some attendees may mentally check out. Loop them in as an active part of the meeting and give each person a reason for being there that\u2019s directly related to the success of the project or topic you\u2019re meeting about.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"cta-button blue-button\" aria-label=\"Get started\" href=\"https:\/\/auth.monday.com\/users\/sign_up_new\" target=\"_blank\">Get started<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Top tactics for better meetings<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you know how to prepare for an effective meeting, let\u2019s get into what should happen <em>during<\/em> the actual meeting.<\/p>\n<h3>Ditch the board room<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of pulling up chairs around the meeting table, try going for a walk or getting outdoors for a change of scenery during your meeting. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apa.org\/pubs\/journals\/releases\/xlm-a0036577.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">Research<\/a> shows that walking leads to increased creative thinking, and anecdotal evidence suggests that meeting taken while walking lead to more honest exchanges with team members that are overall <a href=\"https:\/\/davidhaimes.wordpress.com\/2014\/01\/24\/an-update-on-walking-meetings\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">more productive<\/a> than traditional sit-down meetings.<\/p>\n<p>Marketer Dunja Lazi\u0107 says she\u2019s found it to be effective, too: \u201cYou\u2019ll be more creative and more focused on the task at hand if you\u2019re walking and talking. This works well for meetings over calls too&#8211;just make sure you\u2019re in a safe\/carless space and you\u2019re mindful of the environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Allot time for small talk<\/h3>\n<p>Meetings don\u2019t have to be all business. In fact, it\u2019s a good idea to leave time for people to connect about non-work related topics before and after the meeting, as this helps build trust, rapport, and <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/teamwork\/cross-team-collaboration-with-monday-com\/\">cross-team communication<\/a> that may not get to happen normally during the workweek. Plus, this type of chit-chat is going to happen regardless&#8211;so you might as well plan for it.<\/p>\n<p>SEO expert Brendan Hufford said, \u201cIt\u2019s important to make room for relationships when you\u2019re gathered for a meeting. Ask someone how their dog is, or how their kid\u2019s first week of school is, or the new house. Not everything has to be impersonal to be efficient. Making the business aspects more productive gives people more time for friendly chatter.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Stay on task<\/h3>\n<p>When you get a group of people together, it\u2019s easy to get distracted. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to establish a point person who keeps everyone on task and focused on the agenda (and that acts as a referee of sorts.)<\/p>\n<p>You can also have that person act as a gatekeeper by telling them <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/productivity\/take-better-meeting-notes\/\">to make notes<\/a> on other ideas\/topics that come up during the group conversation in case they need to be revisited later.<\/p>\n<p>Public health professional Amy Schlotthauer calls this having a \u2018parking lot.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a space where you can physically write down all the non-sequitur things people bring up that aren\u2019t related to the agenda. You can come back to them at the end if there is time or follow up offline. People feel heard!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<h3>Do a meeting recap<\/h3>\n<p>Finally&#8211;be sure to recap what you\u2019ve covered during your meeting at the end and review what you\u2019ve outlined and accomplished. From there, restate the plan of action for what needs to happen <em>after<\/em> the meeting ends, who\u2019s responsible for what, and when. This helps everyone leave the conversation with clear next steps that will keep the project moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Writer Alyssa Goulet gave the following example of how this might look and sound: &#8220;We talked about the revisions you requested on this project. I&#8217;ve made additional notes based on what we discussed. We&#8217;ll set a due date of X for the final draft. Does that work?&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Manage Better Meetings, Be More Productive<\/h2>\n<p>With the meeting management tips we\u2019ve covered here, you can start getting the most out of the time you spend with your team members&#8211;and waste less time. Just remember to take steps before, during, and after to set yourself up for a productive, meaningful meeting. It\u2019ll take a little extra work, but it will pay off in productivity.<\/p>\n<p><em>Three cheers to meetings that shouldn\u2019t have been an email.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"cta-button blue-button\" aria-label=\"Get started\" href=\"https:\/\/auth.monday.com\/users\/sign_up_new\" target=\"_blank\">Get started<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve probably been trapped in a meeting before that feels like a never-ending time-suck.
