Chris Fenning explains how to run better meetings by matching your format to your goal. Start with a clear purpose and desired output, then pick the right structure: pairs activities, group work, brainstorming, or Post-its.
How to have a great meeting, tip number 4: pick the right format. In your meeting, you've got a clear purpose and a clear output, or if you don't, you should. When you know the output that you want and the purpose, the reason that you're gathering people together, you need to pick the format that best delivers those things. There's no point trying to create a list of ideas if your format is just you talking. Perhaps your format could be a pairs activity, group activity, brainstorming, getting people to write things down on Post-its and stick them to the wall. Whatever you're trying to achieve in your meeting, whatever your purpose is, and whatever the output you're trying to produce, there's going to be a format that helps you achieve that. So when you're planning your meeting, pick a format that best serves your purpose and output.
