Making your remote meetings more effective -

We spend (and waste) a lot of time, in meetings. Now that many of us are working as members or leaders of remote teams it’s important that we make our meetings as effective and efficient as possible.

This session will share some practical tools, techniques and approaches to help your remote meetings run better. What you learn will also be useful for you when you can get your team back together and can run face-to-face meetings again.

There’ll be time at the end of the session for questions and answers to help you with any specific issues you may have.

This training is being delivered for Community Chesterfield by Andrew Deighton. Andrew set up AWD Development Solutions Ltd in April 2014 after a 26-year career at Rolls-Royce plc. He worked across many business sectors in senior Employee Development and HR roles. He has specialist people and team development capability, which combined with an initial background in engineering means his solutions and workshops are practical and pragmatic. Andrew is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development and Member of the Professional Speaking Association. He is a trustee of the DHA charity in Derby and is a volunteer with the Inspiring The Future organisation.
