Fun and Exciting Meetings!

“We’re always meeting but nothing’s getting done!”

Sound familiar? If your campus clubs and student organizations seem to be spinning their wheels or can’t get members to show up for and participate in your meetings, then this is the session for you.

  • You’ll learn to make your meetings more interesting, more participatory and more effective
  • You’ll see how to incorporate FUN ELEMENTS that you haven’t considered before
  • You’ll learn to stay within the timeframe stated and avoid the ‘marathon meetings’ where nothing gets done
  • Learn the basics of parliamentary procedure so everyone gets a chance to be heard and recognized
  • Learn to build an effective agenda for the four different types of meetings that gets everything done. You’ll also learn to rotate meeting formats to stave of boredom with the ‘same old, same old’
  • Learn techniques for making everyone feel welcome, involving and recognizing members and treating guests and VIPs with extra care
  • Learn to take effective and interesting minutes – and what should and shouldn’t be in them – that’s keeps everyone up-to-date and involved – Even if they weren’t at the meeting\

“Fun and Exciting Meetings’ is the cure for the boring and poorly attended meetings that many campus clubs and organization experience.

In Dave’s years of providing leadership training to hundreds of student-led clubs and organizations (and attending thousands of meeting himself!), Dave has found that many students are great leaders and are very passionate about what their organization does. “That does not mean, though, that they are equipped to run meetings in a way that energizes and excites their members and keeps everyone involved.” Says Dave. “Put bluntly, the meetings could be better.”

We’ve all seen it. Meetings that don’t start on time. Meetings that don’t end of time. Meetings that are a colossal waste of time. Meetings are a fact of life, and inexperienced leadership can make one meeting last a lifetime.

America’s Student Leadership Trainer Dave Kelly, will help you improve the quality of meetings on your campus! He knows that student leaders can run great meetings if they’re just taught how.

Your clubs and organizations can run great meetings and your students will leave this session confident of that fact! Especially after seeing Dave model how it’s done! Your student leaders will learn to run their meetings in a way that is efficient, enjoyable, energizes the group, and makes everyone want to keep coming back.
