“Keep your mind open to change all the time. Welcome it. Court it. It is only by examining and reexamining your opinions and ideas that you can progress.”
- Dale Carnegie
Dear Candy:
Change is necessary for an organization to grow. Change stems from new ideas. One of the best forums for discussion and new ideas is the workplace meeting. Here are some tips to make your meetings more productive:
- Develop an environment that encourages ideas
- Let all participants study the problems or issues in advance of the meeting
- Urge participants to "hitchhike" or build on ideas
- Do not evaluate any idea until after the meeting has ended
