Confident Speaking at Meetings

We all attend meetings. Whether it’s the weekly department/research group debriefing, the departmental Management Group, the Health and Safety Advisory Committee, whatever, we all have some meetings scheduled in our diary.

As time is such an important and valuable resource, a fundamental question is “Why are we there”? If we attend meetings at all it is essential that we make them work for us!

This workshop aims to identify the key components of “confident speaking at meetings” and to provide both a structure and tools for planning and delivery.

At the end of this workshop the participants will :

 be clear about their purpose in attending a meeting

 know four essential questions to answer when planning for a meeting

 understand the different contributions of words, voice and body language as

strategies to build rapport

 be clear about the skills involved in active listening

 know how to plan the content of your contribution

 have a wider range of tools to manage relationships and influence people.

Duration: 3 hours
