Try some questions from the course

Question 1 of 3

What mostly decides whose ideas get heard in a meeting?

 

Meeting design decides it. Agenda, order of speaking and the ways people can contribute all shape who is heard.

Lesson 1, Why it matters, teaches this. See the outline

Question 2 of 3

Which invite title helps people prepare best?

 

A clear invite states the purpose, the decision and what to read first, so everyone can prepare.

Lesson 2, Before the meeting, teaches this. See the outline

Question 3 of 3

What is the best first move when a chat comment is ignored?

 

Reading it aloud and crediting the person brings the input into the room straight away.

Lesson 4, In the moment, teaches this. See the outline
