Tips for effective meetings

2. Engage and involve participants: Active participation is crucial. Use interactive elements to involve everyone, ensuring that each voice is heard and valued.
3. Use time wisely: Time management is key. Allocate time slots for each agenda item and stick to them to maintain momentum and focus.

Meeting facilitation tips
