About the Book
Ugh—meetings. They’re where productivity goes to die, right? There has to be a better way. According to leading consultants Dick and Emily Axelrod, there is.
Using the same principles that make video games so engaging and that transformed the numbing assembly line into the dynamic shop floor, the Axelrods outline a flexible and adaptable system used to run truly productive meetings in all kinds of organizations—meetings where people create concrete plans, accomplish tasks, build connections, and move projects forward. They show how to design every aspect of a meeting—from the way you greet people at the beginning to how you sum up at the end—so that real work actually gets done. Those who have adopted this system will never go back. Neither will you.
My Take on the Book
As someone that conducts many meetings I have to say that this book was a great book that really provides you with a clean plan for how you can prepare well and conduct great meetings. I found the book to be written in a way that was very practical and definitely provided a manager like myself with great tools that could be put to use right away.
The book was short and engaged the reader from beginning to end. There are great examples shared throughout the book that make the concepts tangible.
If you want to transform your meetings this book will help you do just that!
