Introducing 'The New Meeting' in your organization
If you want to get started with this, it is not advisable to proclaim the message 'we are going to abolish meetings'. That mainly generates resistance. Focus on the advantages of using social tools for the meeting process:Carrot
The ease with which the agenda is managed and the quick distribution of tasks.
Much of the discussion prior to the meeting can take place online, saving time and allowing you to move straight to decision making.
There is no need to take minutes afterwards. This is done in real time during the meeting.
The reasoning behind decisions can always be easily found afterwards.
Then let the employees experience for themselves how the number of agenda items per meeting decreases, so that they ultimately conclude for themselves that meetings are actually no longer necessary.
Up until now, I have experienced two problems with organizations when holding meetings denmark telegram data in this way. First, it is not yet possible with the large software packages to give the aspect of time to a post. For example, you cannot set that a subject will not be planned again for two months or that the deadline is next week. The second problem is that most tools do not yet integrate well with back-end systems. For example, interaction with CRM systems is useful for sales consultations or complaint handling. However, most suppliers are already working hard on this.
Making firm agreements is necessary
You can significantly improve the meeting process by using social tools. If you do it right, many meetings will disappear by themselves or at least decrease in frequency. It is important to make a few firm agreements about the use of tags and later about conducting the discussion online. Do not go into the organization with the message that you are going to abolish meetings, but emphasize the advantages of using social tools. In the following articles I will discuss the following topics:
How can I crowdsource parts of my work?
Managing incidents through social tools
The social service desk
I hereby ask anyone who has experience with using social tools in meetings or is planning to use them to share their experiences in the comments. Ideas for improvement are also welcome.
