Establishing Worthwhile Meetings with Andrew Davies
Manage episode 478462334 series 3603585
In this episode of “The Unstoppable Leadership” Podcast, host & Leadership Coach Jaclyn Strominger is joined by leadership revolutionary Andrew Davies– a man who is changing the way that businesses handle one of the most important aspects of company culture: The Meeting.
It doesn’t take long to recognize why Andrew, alongside his company “Artly Working”, have been hired by over 100 of the biggest and most successful companies around the globe. Their position is simple: in corporate culture the meeting is all-too-often an afterthought. They’re frequently scheduled by leaders who feel that they are simply a part of the job, and who fail to capitalize on meetings as an essential tool that can be used to effectively grow a company’s Bottom Line.
In just a short amount of time, we get a fantastic sample of exactly what it is that has brought Andrew’s company so much success. The #1 takeaway? The “ABC’s” of a meeting: ensuring that before any meeting is held, that you as a leader ask yourself what the meeting is intended to improve upon from either an Affective, Behavioral, or Cognitive Standpoint.
No matter how you slice it, communication is key in every business setting, and throughout the episode Andrew gives gem after gem of quality insight into establishing intentional and effective meetings. From discussions surrounding workplace culture & morale, to a candid conversation highlighting ways to improve in the future, Andrew’s work is proof that employees value a company that values their time– and it’s essential in improving employee retention.
