🎙 Learn the three important meetings to balance cadence, focus, length, and discipline. Ensure effective communication while being available for questions without constant interruptions of your time.
Using these methods, you can improve the efficiency of your business and increase the trust and teamwork of your staff.
KEY TAKEAWAYS – Optimizing Effective Communication
- The Daily Standup Meeting is the hub of the business. It informs you of your team’s activities daily, helps them with challenges, and ensures team focus.
- If the staff knows they can ask questions about their tasks during the Daily Standup Meeting, they will be less likely to interrupt managers.
- Weekly 121s with your team will allow them to share work details with you. They can also discuss personal matters. This provides a more private level of communication.
- The Company or Departmental Meeting is where you discuss company-wide announcements, company values, goals, task updates, and any company-wide issues.
- An hour is a reasonable maximum length for a company meeting. However, ensure one subject does not dominate. Organize an additional session for any specific subject that needs more time. Doing this will ensure the presence of all staff is fully utilised.
BEST MOMENTS – Optimizing Effective Communication
2:44 – 💬 ‘If you only speak to your team members once a week about what they’re working on and getting a pulse for the business, then you can go quite far down the wrong path before they can get pulled back in. So it’s not about micromanaging; it’s about being there to support people.’
5:12 – 💬 ‘The Weekly 121 is an opportunity to build trust, and more importantly, it is not an opportunity for you to start delegating more work or to take over the meeting and start running it.’
9:28 – 💬 ‘So you’re not flooding your team with multiple team meetings, which kills everyone’s productivity, start with one Company Meeting. People see the benefit of it, they enjoy it, they get the agenda, they learn how it works, and then you start putting other helpful and needed meetings to progress things forward.’
