Improve the Effectiveness of Your Meetings
| |
| Here are five tips to improve your meetings.
1. Reduce griping and venting. The leader of the meeting can allow people to vent, but not have it become a debilitating whirlpool.
2. Use the agenda wisely. Know when to follow the script and when to rip it up.
3. Summarize the discussion frequently. This prevents an endless cycle of people in violent agreement.
4. Agree to disagree. Use the rule of three to cut off acromony without hurting people’s feelings.
5. Manage the time efficiently. Make sure people feel the value in the meeting time.

“Funnel” or “Incubator?”
| |
| Friendly violent debates are really a lot of fun. They’re also the best way to practice selling complex ideas. Fortunately for me, there are lots of folks ready, willing and able to have no-holds-barred, free-for-all arguments about my allegedly brilliant ideas. One of my favorites involves the traditional “sales funnel” metaphor. |

Process Management Improves the Horizontal Flow
| |
| A group of sailors were out in an old boat. The boat hit a rock and sprung a slow leak. The group began to fight over whose fault it was that they hit the rock. Then they argued over whose responsibility it was to fix the hole. Those on the starboard side shouted that those on the port side, where the hole was, should be responsible for fixing it. All the while, the boat filled with water and floundered in the increasing heavy seas. As the shouting and finger pointing grew, a large wave swamped the boat. Everyone drowned at sea.

Yield of Dreams
| |
| n the early 1950s, Florence Chadwick became the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. During her first attempt, she had been swimming for hours and was getting very near to the English coast. That's when the seas turned much colder and heavy swells developed. A dense fog settled in blocking everything from view with a chilly wet blanket. As Florence's pace slowed and energy drained, her mother called through the fog from one of the small boats following behind, "Come on, Florence, you can make it. It's only a little further." |

Are you fishing or hoping for a free boat ride?
| |
| This morning Joanne and I were talking to some locals on a tiny island where we’re hanging out for a few days. We saw a fishing boat come in right after a pretty violent storm. There were probably 20 guys hanging around the edges of this very small boat. No one is paid for their services – they all fish and keep track of their catch. Typically, they pay the captain and owner of the boat 2 pounds of fish per day for the privilege of fishing from his boat. |
