Book Description
A cutting-edge guide to quality meetings
Inspired by a corporate survey in which executives cried out for help to improve meeting quality, Novartis Pharmaceuticals commissioned Glenn M. Parker and Robert Hoffman to create the tools for structuring effective meetings. Meeting Excellence details the game plan that Palmer and Hoffman designed and that Novartis implemented globally. Their procedures and templates-from how to create meeting invitations and evaluations to taking notes, facilitating meetings, and making presentations-have been tested across a diverse range of countries and meeting formats, from video conferences to multicultural gatherings.
Glenn M. Parker (Skillman, NJ) is President of Glenn M. Parker Associates and has helped create high-performance teams at companies such as Merck, Pratt & Whitney, and Sun Microsystems. Robert Hoffman (Florham Park, NJ) is Executive Director for Organizational Development in the Oncology Business Unit at Novartis Pharmaceuticals.
