Exciting approach to meeting management gains acceptance with corporationsThe Glowan Consulting Group today introduced an exciting new program for conducting and managing high performance meetings.
The Glowan Consulting Group today introduced an exciting new program for conducting and managing high performance meetings.San Jose, Calif., November 21, 2005 -- The Glowan Consulting Group today introduced an exciting new program for conducting and managing high performance meetings. The program is in response to the decades of dissatisfaction voiced by managers and non-managers alike about participating in non-productive, lengthy meetings.
Making Meetings Work takes the well known fundamentals of meeting management and casts them in an entirely new light -- how people "show-up" for meetings largely determines the effectiveness of them.
The Glowan behavioral model of "Intervention, Prevention and Advancement" (IPA) is utilized to assist client companies in identifying the reasons they are having so many meetings and frequently are not accomplishing the desired results.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
Barbara Burgess, CEO of Pathways Homecare and Hospice remarks, "Since participating in the Glowan meeting management workshop, our executive team has dramatically changed why and how we have meetings. The!
re is now an action-oriented environment focused on decision-making and results. We also are more aware of how our decisions must align with our strategy. Beginning in the New Year, we're introducing the tools and techniques to the entire management team".
ABOUT GLOWAN
The Glowan Consulting Group is engaged in the business of helping companies nationwide adapt to the rapidly changing business climate in our emerging global economy. Our network of Business Professionals have broad and deep experience and are skilled not only in all facets of operating businesses but also in moving our client companies from their current structures and processes that position them to better serve their customers.
