I'm Barb Bickford, founder of Improve Your Meetings, where we empower scientists to collaborate, lead and make a difference When I was a staff scientist in the public sector, I saw how... -- poorly-led meetings led to bored and poor results In turn, these meetings created... -- unnecessary stress, To be honest, I felt like an imposter as a leader. And, I led some pretty awful meetings. I knew there had to be a better way, and that drove me to find alternatives. As I improved my meetings, I gained confidence and was given more responsibility. In time, I grew to be well-known for helping people to work together on challenging and emerging issues. You can, too! You can transform your meetings and your personal leadership and make a real difference. |
What the lack of effective collaboration
