You’re not alone. Meet Iris, a sales director so overwhelmed by meetings that she feels like a hamster on a wheel—in fact, she’s turned into one. Just in time, she meets a coach—a leading meeting efficiency expert—with a simple system that helps her regain her sanity and humanity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The coach’s secret is a laser-like focus on the five biggest meeting pain points:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1. Meeting overload: Professionals waste twenty-four days a year in useless meetings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 2. Missing success ingredients: ninety percent of all professionals attend meetings that lack a clearly stated objective and agenda.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 3. Virtual-meeting chaos: Disinterested participants + endless technical glitches huge amounts of wasted time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 4. Agenda adrift: Goals are missed when meetings veer off course.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 5. Action distraction: Incomplete action items result in delayed projects and missed deadlines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The coach demonstrates that these five challenges are damaging Iris’s career and costing the world over a trillion dollars each year. He provides practical new solutions that rapidly transform Iris from victim to victor. These solutions are tailored to the technology-driven world in which Iris lives—she discovers how to use e-calendars, PDAs, and virtual meetings to make her life easier, not more complicated. She applies the solutions, gets immediate results, and reclaims her life. The Hamster Revolution for Meetings focuses on a small number of high-impact best practices that really work. Included is a landmark case study that shows how 3,000 Capital One associates reclaimed ten days per year while improving meeting effectiveness by over 35 percent.","brand":"Berrett-Koehler Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48009743794431,"sku":"9781605090078","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781605090078_s600x595.jpg?v=1782320494","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781605090078","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
