Meetings suck. They take too long, are too frequent, and often aren’t that productive. What if we could make them more effective and enjoyable by learning from an unexpected source? In this practical and interactive workshop, we’ll look at the key traits of Millennials and how they can teach us specific techniques for running meetings that leave you and your teams feeling happy and productive. We’ll apply these techniques together to common meeting scenarios to see them in practice. We’ll share tips and tricks we have found that make meetings with our teams and/or customers more productive.
