According to a random telephone survey of 1216 American workers conducted by Interactive Meeting Solutions, almost a third of the country's workforce (29%) now attends three or more meetings a week - and 40% of American workers say many of those meetings are a "complete waste of time."
Face the facts; bad business meetings are a tremendous economic, creative and cultural drain on American businesses every day. It is safe to assume that no business would willingly allow their manufacturing production to suffer from this high level of inefficiency: so why do so many companies condone the production of chronically bad meetings? Our experience has shown that most of the time they simply have not experienced a real successful meeting, so they just don't know what they don't know.
The experts at Interactive Meeting Solutions have collected their years of meeting experience and knowledge to create a short 2 hour corporate training program which gives businesses the tools they need to succeed in the conference room. IMS will train your team in the art of the meeting including: interpersonal skills, tips on teleconferencing, when to use web meetings, how to hire a facilitator, and how to align every meeting with your business needs.
