Run Leadership Meetings That Burst With Fresh Ideas
Learn how to facilitate meetings that encourage creativity, collaboration, and brain-sharing
Presented by John W. Myrna

As the African proverb goes, “If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.”  Senior executives are only as good as their teams. And, many struggle to get the fantastic ideas trapped in their team's heads, out in the open. Without those ideas, senior executives are left to figure it out on their own…and no one person has all the answers. Creativity, collaboration, and brain sharing are key ingredients in your recipe for business success.

John Myrna, a management expert and author with 40 years of experience focused on effective leadership team development, has helped hundreds of business executives to get fresh ideas from their teams. He'll teach you an easy-to-implement methodology that fosters participation among leadership peers. With John's teachings, you'll learn how to conduct productive, high-stakes meetings that encourage idea sharing from participants.

In this webinar, you will learn how to:

• Create an environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and brain-sharing
• Set ground rules and roles that encourage participation and idea contributions
• Unleash the genius of each meeting participant while still building consensus
• Get your team on board and committed to act on the decisions made in the meeting
• Define clear next steps for the team following the meeting

As an added bonus, you'll receive a copy of John's book "An End to Meeting Madness" to help you implement the lessons of this webinar.
