Anyone who structures meetings in such a way that they are perceived as enriching by all participants will ignite creative fireworks in their meetings.

On the way to positively perceived meetings, the first step is therefore to find out what causes us to simply switch off at some point. Long-winded presentations are one important reason. Excessively long and frequent speeches by “opinion leaders” are another. If discussions then go round in circles or are even aimlessly beaten around the bush, the participants must inevitably feel that a meeting is a waste of time. And then they switch off. This happens particularly quickly in online meetings, which require a special degree of structure, self-discipline and attention.

A few basic principles are called for to ensure that your (online) meetings and workshops can be used positively and efficiently even under the greatest individual deadline pressure:

• Good preparation
• Methodical control of the meeting process
• And above all: clear objectives!

Only by taking this approach, can meetings lead to concrete, desired results!

Successful moderation – on-site or digital

We support you in selecting your most appropriate moderation tools so that you always achieve your set goals in your meetings. To do this, we highly recommend the following three principles:

• Good preparation is the be-all and end-all

It is important to clarify the task, the goals of the event and the relevant interests of the participants in advance and to develop an adequate moderation concept.

• Learning and improving

By jointly reflecting on the course of the event, we derive learnings and opportunities for improvement.

• Make a lasting impact

Through joint transfer process, you can subsequently integrate and use the methods used in your professional environment and in your daily life.
