Call Yourself a Manager? Part 1: Meetings
- Synopsis
- Aims to assist managers in all types of organisations to improve their skills in managing meetings. It uses an approach new to management training in the United Kingdom, but one which has been applied to a limited extent in medical training in the USA and Australia. The programme covers problems of chairmanship, presenting information to meetings, resolving conflict, the role of the secretary, making decisions and many other topics. The viewer is asked to take the role either of an ordinary member of a meeting or of a chairman or secretary, and enables managers to understand, for example, how they might react to a particular style of chairmanship, or deal on the spot with a problem involving the business of the meeting.
