All too often, meetings can be a drain of time, energy, and creativity—leading to disengaged participants, unclear decisions, and wasted resources. Effective meetings where all participants are engaged lead to better collaboration, clearer communication, and more productive outcomes. This interactive session provides practical strategies to make in-person or virtual meetings more engaging, focused, and action-driven, allowing for them to become valuable tools for innovation, problem-solving, and driving meaningful progress. Whether you’re leading a team or attending frequent meetings, this session will help you turn dull, unproductive gatherings into dynamic, results-oriented conversations.

In this workshop, participants will learn how to:

  • Structure meetings for maximum efficiency and participation, encourage meaningful discussions, and keep attendees motivated.
  • Implement strategies to keep participants actively involved and encourage meaningful contributions
  • Ensure meetings lead to concrete decisions, accountability, and end on time!

All of Suzannah’s presentations can be delivered as an in-person or virtual workshop, interactive convention breakout session, or a keynote. Content will be customized to the specifics of your company, industry, conference, and audience needs.
