| 1 - Introduction |
| Most of us have stories to tell about how serious, lengthy, unnecessary, boring and disappointing meetings can be. We've all experienced meetings that have been 'highjacked' by one or more speakers, where we felt our voice was not heard and our contribution not valued. |
| The good news is that it doesn't have to be like this. Our work, over the last ten years, has been to design and facilitate effective and efficient meetings that achieve the objectives that have been set, and leave participants in the knowledge that their voice has been heard and their contribution valued. |

Although, our experience is mainly with large groups, the lessons we have learned, and pass on to you in this book apply to meetings of any size. Our focus here is on every-day processes for every-day meetings. In the book we provide process tips with success measure so that you can evaluate your process, and a number of copyright free graphic templates for you to photocopy and use transform your meetings. |
