Good day bloggers - my apologies for getting so behind with the posts - here is Thursday 5th's post.
How to Ace any Meeting - Cut the Waffle!
There's nothing worse than sitting in a meeting that is going no-where, when you have piles of work waiting for you on your desk, and the person who is talking is going on and on and on about . . . . nothing!
If you are expected to speak at a meeting - make sure that the meaning of your piece is clear. Use simple language that is easily understood by all.
If you are nervous - talk through the major points with a friend or colleague and get them to note down how many time you use the same words such as 'sort of' or 'kind of' or 'I feel' or any other words that sound as though they are part of a 'waffle'.
It's not a great idea to start a sentence with "This is probably a bad idea but . . . . " - if you don't believe in what you are saying then rather don't say it at all.
