Chairing Meeting - Course Overview
If multiple members of your organisation require our Chairing Skills course, an in-house programme is likely the most effective training solution. Our in-house programmes are straightforward to arrange, with training conveniently delivered at your location across South Wales. Furthermore, all our courses are offered with transparent pricing and no hidden costs.
Meetings are an essential part of communication across an organisation, however 71% of people have said meetings are unproductive and inefficient. Well run meetings are timed, concise, solve problems, generate ideas, inclusive, raise morale, improve communication and ultimately they move things forward. The role of the chairperson is fundamental to the success of the meeting and require a certain set of skills. If a chairperson fails in their role then meetings are at risk of creating conflict and being unproductive and inefficient.
Our half-day Chairing Skills course has been designed so that delegates are able to chair meetings with confidence and professionalism. Delegates will learn the role of the chair, setting outcomes, guide discussions, manage timekeeping, manage personal dynamics and provide feedback and monitoring of the meeting. They will also learn how to deal with difficult participants and to encourage participation from all individuals. Finally, delegates will learn how to monitor and gain feedback from participants so that they can continually improve meeting quality.
