Please Excuse Cross Postings

Mark your calendar! The next DC/SLA event is set for March 1. Don't miss out on this wonderful speaker. Our chapter President and Vice President recently found Donna's presentation so useful, they invited her to speak for this DC/SLA event! 


Beating Meeting Madness

Meetings are a major way we get things done in both our work and personal lives. Often though, meetings test our patience and waste our time. This session is for anyone who wants to run an effective meeting or who wants to make the meetings they participate in more effective. Key topics that will be explored include: 
* Characteristics of effective meetings 
* Strategies and techniques for effective meetings 
* Dealing with meeting nightmares 
Participants will be asked to engage in a meeting exercise and results will be shared.
