About this bitesize training course

Covid-19 has profoundly changed the way we work and that includes a huge rise in the number of virtual meetings. In a far more complex work landscape employees require support to make hybrid meetings work effectively.

Meetings can be a great way to keep teams engaged, complete group projects, win new business, report on performance, and much more.

While meetings are key it doesn’t mean they’re always a good use of time. Maybe you’ve sat in a meeting and wondered why you received an invite or why the technology wasn’t tested beforehand.  It’s frustrating when you know you’ve got a pile of tasks to complete and nothing to show for your time. Poorly managed meetings not only affect productivity but impact on engagement and wellbeing.

More often than not employees simply haven’t learned how to plan and manage meetings  

In this bite-sized training session, we’ll explore the challenges and opportunities for hybrid meetings. Participants will learn tips and techniques on structure, tools, and engagement from planning through to follow-up.

The result? A shift from hybrid meeting frustration to greater productivity, collaboration, and engagement.

Attendees of the Making hybrid & remote meetings work training course will learn to…

  • Fully understand the challenges and implications of hybrid meetings for participants, wherever they are based

  • Determine the best meeting structure to reach the necessary outcomes

  • Explore meeting rules, etiquette, and boundaries and learn how to implement them successfully

  • Select the most appropriate technical tools and have an awareness of technology challenges

  • Run engaging and inclusive meetings in a hybrid environment

👩🏽‍💻 Take an intentional approach

There’s more to hybrid working than everyone working from their kitchen table three days a week. This training course encourages everyone to explore the complex mix of opportunities and risks that remote working provides and how to adjust communication techniques to meet the moment.

💨 Create an open dialogue

Like our other courses, our two-hour bitesize training sessions come with lots of short, pacey breakout discussions that get people talking about the issues they’re facing and exploring solutions together. It sets a new level for collaboration and openness that continues long after the session ends.
