Just about every leader feels like they have too many meetings. But one of the biggest ways leaders can make their time more effective is by cutting out the side conversations, the “meetings outside the meeting” and making sure all the conversations that need to happen take place WITHIN team meetings and with the whole team’s engagement.

What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why team members prefer side conversations instead of bringing things up in the meeting.
How to have accountability conversations within meetings well.
How a solution-minded team is different than a team that dismisses or blames.
How a leader can model how they want people to engage in meetings.
Why all leaders should talk less and ask more.
How to get better engagement in your meeting.
Why better engagement in your meeting and fewer one-on-one conversations outside the meeting causes affects team morale, unity, and trust.
