Overview
Great leaders run great meetings. You can too.
Ask anyone who attends meetings and they'll tell you that almost every meeting could be cut down enormously. Why doesn't it happen? Because no one knows how.
A skilled meeting chair uses processes and communication techniques to halve your meeting time and double your productivity. Leading by example in every meeting influences a positive workplace culture.
This workshop will show you how. It's an entertaining and fast-moving half-day workshop. It will answer your questions on how you can get your meetings back on track.
You'll have the chance to ask specific questions about your meetings. Remember, every time you chair or run a meeting, your leadership skills are on show.

Facilitator
About the facilitator
The first thing you notice about David is that he is not tall. This has worked to his advantage as he had to work harder to make himself ‘look tall’ in the eyes of others, in the way he speaks and in his executive presence. For over 35 years, he has been helping people at all levels walk tall whenever they speak, lead or participate in a meeting or interact with colleagues. Presence isn’t just about how you communicate with your voice, it’s also about when to keep quiet, and how to exude confidence and inspire others.
With 35 years of training, coaching and facilitating, you get experience, knowledge, and wisdom. That means you and your people are safe in his hands.
You know you’ve found your ideal career niche when you enjoy doing the things most people avoid, such as ‘public speaking’ and immersing yourself in ‘detailed meeting procedures’.
David’s training methods are based on real-life experience. He learnt through experience the best techniques to become more confident by constantly developing high level communication skills.
David is regularly hired as a facilitator and as an Independent Chair for difficult meetings. The skills required to command the room in these situations require all of David’s skillsets. He has written books on meeting procedures and presentation skills. When it’s imperative you get a positive outcome for your presentation, ideation, or meetings, you can rely on David’s vast knowledge and 35+ years of experience to help you achieve these goals.
David has formal qualifications in education, technology, governance, law and mediation.
With David, you'll learn, you'll laugh, you'll learn some more!
