Whether chairing or participating in a meeting, all staff play a role in making it a more efficient and effective experience.

During facilitated activities, participants are guided through key steps in planning and chairing meetings. Examples are used to explore the preparation required when convening a meeting, including an overview of various types of meetings, developing an agenda and drafting a Terms of Reference that sets out the purpose, responsibilities and ways of working for the group.

Participants are introduced to a range of facilitation approaches that aim to create an inclusive, dynamic and purposeful meeting. Through simulated exercises, participants are provided with strategies to manage disruptive behaviours while maintaining focus and group momentum.

The course assists any employee who organises and/ or participates in meetings, increasing their skills to effectively chair and actively contribute.
