    Thank you for your clear explanation. It was very effective.
  • I really appreciate these tips, and have absolutely never worked anywhere where they run meetings this way 😂Either way, this is a very "be the change you want to see in the world" level of advice I'm taking away from your great video! Just to share, my direct previous employer liked to inform us of meetings basically one minute before you're expected to show up in the meeting room. You never had any idea of what the meeting was about, how to be prepared, or if it's a discussion about something, a reprimand, etc, or how long it will be. You just showed up and felt extremely nervous. You were also not allowed to ask what the meeting was about or if any preparation was needed. That employer liked to have the upper hand on everything and "surprise" everyone - walk into the room with him and the manager looking extremely stern and serious? Surprise! We just need you to help with a going away celebration. Walk into the room with them leaning back into their seats and asking you to have a seat? Yay, time to be ambushed about your dedication to the company and be demanded to answer if you're planning to stay or if you're thinking of quitting. Needless to say, the way they ran meetings was just a canary in the coal mine and that company had (and still has) huge problems and an extremely high turn over. I'm starting to think that a good question to ask when in a job interview is "how does this company structure their meetings?" 😁 Thanks again for your helpful insight!

    These are excellent tips that will go a long way toward more productive meetings! I would be interested in hearing specific tools on generating discussion for online/Zoom meetings. It seems every meeting I participate in lately is online and the dynamic is so much different with most people at least having their mic muted if not their camera turned off as well. How as leaders can we bring life to online meetings? Thank you for your videos!

    Sir, I am the leader of a team of students, i have made a reorganization in our team and we will meet every weekend for a meeting. This video was helpful, but this is more suitable for an organisation than a team of students. Sir, could you please provide some tips for my specific case. Thak you in advance.
