| another word for business meeting: Death by Meeting Patrick M. Lencioni, 2010-06-03 A straightforward framework for creating engaging and exciting business meetings Casey McDaniel had never been so nervous in his life. In just ten minutes, The Meeting, as it would forever be known, would begin. Casey had every reason to believe that his performance over the next two hours would determine the fate of his career, his financial future, and the company he had built from scratch. “How could my life have unraveled so quickly?” he wondered. In his latest page-turning work of business fiction, best-selling author Patrick Lencioni provides readers with another powerful and thought-provoking book, this one centered around a cure for the most painful yet underestimated problem of modern business: bad meetings. And what he suggests is both simple and revolutionary. Casey McDaniel, the founder and CEO of Yip Software, is in the midst of a problem he created, but one he doesn’t know how to solve. And he doesn’t know where or who to turn to for advice. His staff can’t help him; they’re as dumbfounded as he is by their tortuous meetings. Then an unlikely advisor, Will Peterson, enters Casey’s world. When he proposes an unconventional, even radical, approach to solving the meeting problem, Casey is just desperate enough to listen. As in his other books, Lencioni provides a framework for his groundbreaking model, and makes it applicable to the real world. Death by Meeting is nothing short of a blueprint for leaders who want to eliminate waste and frustration among their teams and create environments of engagement and passion. |

| another word for business meeting: Better Meetings Ian P Johnson, 2013-04-30 A thousand days of meetings is your fate if you have an office job that averages one meeting a day for the whole of your career. There will be more meetings than that if you get promoted. The further up the corporate tree you climb, the more of your time will be spent in various types of meetings until the most agile, those with prehensile tails, who reach the very canopy of the tree, get to spend all day in meetings. It’s a sobering thought, and yet very few people spend any time learning about meetings, or even attending training courses about meetings, which would in effect be meetings about meetings. The people who run the training courses would probably even attend meetings about meetings about meetings. As meetings are so common you’d think that there would be a degree in meetings, or it would at least be taught in schools, but no, there is almost nothing out there by way of training or education. True, there are a few courses about not looking at your feet while delivering presentations, or even courses in facilitation, but I’ve never heard of one about the art of planning, organising, booking, participating, enduring, chairing, minuting and ending a successful meeting. That’s what this book is about. If it helps to make meetings more efficient, by reducing the number, reducing the length of meetings, making them more productive and harmonious, fun even, then it will be the most valuable book you ever read, if it saves a few productive hours. If I can save 10% of your time in meetings, then this book is worth 100 days of your working life, if you read it early enough in your career. That’s half your salary for a year. You should write me a cheque! Go on, get your cheque book out. |
| another word for business meeting: The Art of Gathering Priya Parker, 2020-04-14 Hosts of all kinds, this is a must-read! --Chris Anderson, owner and curator of TED From the host of the New York Times podcast Together Apart, an exciting new approach to how we gather that will transform the ways we spend our time together—at home, at work, in our communities, and beyond. In The Art of Gathering, Priya Parker argues that the gatherings in our lives are lackluster and unproductive--which they don't have to be. We rely too much on routine and the conventions of gatherings when we should focus on distinctiveness and the people involved. At a time when coming together is more important than ever, Parker sets forth a human-centered approach to gathering that will help everyone create meaningful, memorable experiences, large and small, for work and for play. Drawing on her expertise as a facilitator of high-powered gatherings around the world, Parker takes us inside events of all kinds to show what works, what doesn't, and why. She investigates a wide array of gatherings--conferences, meetings, a courtroom, a flash-mob party, an Arab-Israeli summer camp--and explains how simple, specific changes can invigorate any group experience. The result is a book that's both journey and guide, full of exciting ideas with real-world applications. The Art of Gathering will forever alter the way you look at your next meeting, industry conference, dinner party, and backyard barbecue--and how you host and attend them. |

| another word for business meeting: Producing Figurative Expression John Barnden, Andrew Gargett, 2020-12-15 This collection contains a selection of recent work on people’s production of figurative language (metaphoric, ironic, metonymic, hyperbolic, ...) and similarly of figurative expression in visual media and artefact design. The articles illuminate issues such as why and under what circumstances people produce figurative expression and how it is moulded by their aims. By focusing on production, the intention is to help stimulate more academic research on it and redress historically lower levels of published work on generation than on understanding of figurative expression. The contributions stretch across various academic disciplines—mainly psychology, cognitive linguistics and applied linguistics, but with a representation also of philosophy and artificial intelligence—and across different types of endeavour—theoretical investigation and model building, experimental studies, and applications focussed work (for instance, figurative expression in product design and online support groups). There is also a wide-ranging introductory chapter that touches on areas outside the scope of the contributed articles and discusses difficult issues such as a complex interplay of production and understanding. |

| another word for business meeting: Disguised Lies Olivia Dalton, 2024-08-21 In her debut book, Disguised Lies, Olivia Dalton chronicles a harrowing journey through a coercively abusive, alcohol-fuelled childhood and, later as an adult, other relationships marked by narcissistic disorder. She offers insights into achieving the realizations necessary for healing, providing clear, intentional pathways for resilience against gaslighting, betrayal, the lovebomb-devalue-discard cycle, and the re-empowerment of the human spirit. Dalton presents tools to transform the mind, body, and spirit, enabling victims to break free from the toxic, cyclical bindings of abuse. By merging light humour with the cringe-worthy subject of narcissism, Olivia’s story balances intensity and inspiration. In her profound, poignantly disturbing, yet uplifting narrative, she explores the spectral characteristics and behavioural stages of narcissistic abuse, the causations, and how she strategically protected and disentangled herself from a lengthy coercively controlled marriage. She also recounts surviving an arduous court battle over property. Peace, purpose, and freedom are the objectives woven into her moving story, culminating in an ending that will leave you speechless. Olivia is many things: an entrepreneur, humanitarian, motivational speaker, and advocate for the liberties and fundamental human rights of women, children, and the vulnerable to exploitation. She is also a thought leader, natural intuitive, inspirator, and mentor. Above all, she’s a survivor! |
