LEADERS WHO BUILD AMAZING SERVICE
In a recent survey conducted by TNS Express for Genesys Conferencing, it was no surprise to find that many people bemoan meetings. In fact, 54% of those surveyed would rather mow the lawn than sit in a boring or unproduc- tive meeting! 41% would rather wash the kitchen floor, 26% would prefer to research car insurance rates, 25% chose going to the dentist over sitting in a meeting, and 23% would rather read the phone book. What does this tell us about meetings?
The fact is, however, that meetings are here to stay. They are a part of the corporate and organizational culture and when conducted and led effective- ly, can have a huge positive effect on an organization.
