Noone wants to be that person who runs meetings that are boring, a waste of time or just plain ‘blergh’. Well, after the last two weeks of talking about panel discussions, it occurred to me that we could take what we know about moderating a panel discussion that your audience loves to run a meeting that not only doesn’t suck, but is fun, inspiring, engaging and effective. In this episode I look at how you can use the lessons from moderating panels to pop real solutions to challenges, generate momentum and enthusiasm and run meetings that really don’t suck. Once you’ve listened, head over to https://www.facebook.com/groups/speakingconfidence and let me know what you think. How do you make your meetings interesting? Can you use some of the techniques from moderating panels to make your meetings more interesting? I’d love to know!
