Skills for the New Normal

Hi Cristina, and welcome to the 7 Habits of Highly Successful Virtual Meetings!


In this short email-based course, you’ll be learning about the habits for running highly successful virtual meetings:
  1. Preparation
  2. Privacy
  3. Collaboration
  4. Communication
  5. Projection
  6. Etiquette
  7. Affirmations
Love them or hate them, meetings are a necessary part of our working lives, and so ensuring they run smoothly means we can spend more time doing actual work. In practice, that means:
  • More alignment
  • Less ‘politics’
  • Faster progress
  • More collaboration
  • Fewer mansplainers
So, whether you’ve been thrown in at the deep end, and are expected to have five ‘meaningful’ back-to-back meetings in a row, or you’ve just got a really important meeting with your team, this course is for you.
We’ve been doing this for years now, with organisations large and small, across timezones, and with people who range from “I turned on my computer!” through to digital ninjas. It became obvious that it was time to share our knowledge of running successful virtual meetings through a step-by-step guide.

At the end of the day, your biggest problem with meetings is likely to be other people. It’s all very well YOU having nailed the seven habits for highly successful meetings, but wouldn’t it be even better if others had those habits too?
You’ll receive your first email of the course tomorrow. In the meantime, why not share this course with others so that you can compare notes, and do a dual-pronged attack on your next meeting? Now’s a great time to invite them!
