What will Melissa and Johnathan be discussing at the Meetup?
Meetings – Love ‘em or hate ‘em, you gotta have ‘em. People love to lament that meetings are a waste of time, but the reality is, in the modern workplace, you need to collaborate with others to get s%$^ done.
Join us on Wed. March 21st for a very special Modern Managers event. We’ll hear from Johnathan and Melissa Nightingale, co-authors of How F*cked Up is your Management, about why meetings are actually useful – if you know how to run them.
You’ll learn why human-to-human meetings are needed to align employees to a company’s mission, rally around goals and build bridges between teams.
Get your questions ready because this is an AMA! We’ll spend most of the evening answering your questions about how to run great meetings. So, come curious! If you need something to get the gears going, check out their blog post about meetings on the Co-Pour, or keep an eye out for our book giveaway later this month!
