This Meeting Sux! You've said it, heard it, thought it, or felt it, perhaps all too often. You may have tried to initiate improvements in meetings but you gave up because it was too much work, or you felt alone in your efforts. Or perhaps you were overcome with frustration, and simply unequipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to do anything. And, this presents you with an opportunity to transform meetings, and in the process, your group and your life. Maybe you decided that running meetings is the meeting leader's responsibility and is not up to you. But what can you do if you're not in charge? This is the first book written

Maitri Melissa Meyer said Quick, Practical and Useful Book. As a single-full-time-working mom, I do not have time to read often and when I do it has to be an easy, fast and impactful read. I got what I needed out of this gem! It is a quick, easy to understand, useful guide packed with practical tips that are easy to implement before, during and after a meeting. I suggest it to anyone that attends or leads any group discussion (in other words EVERYONE!)
