The Meeting Hospital: At last! A cure for the common meeting

How healthy are your meetings? For most of us the answer is somewhere between poor and critically injured. It has been estimated that if middle managers spend just one hour a week in unproductive meetings, it costs British industry £7.8bn a year (HMRC). Not to mention what they cost you personally in time, energy and hair-pulling-out frustration!

If your meetings seem long, pointless, and lack focus, then it’s time for a check up at the meeting hospital. David Pearl advises major companies and their leadership teams on how to make their meetings engaging, powerful, value-generating, memorable, well attended, powerfully stagemanaged and end on time!

David will show you how to bring your meetings to life. He'll reveal:

  • A robust new model to help you build powerful meetings
  • Diagnostic tools so that you can recognise symptoms and treat the underlying causes
  • Best practice tips: how to get maximum meeting impact with minimal means
  • A review of engagement killers and top turn offs
  • Interactive exercises where you can practise turning sick meetings around
