Staffing Meetings: Pulling the Strings from Behind the Scenes

We believe in meetings that stay on track without disrupting leadership. Running a successful staffing meeting isn’t always about being in the spotlight. Sometimes, it’s about skillfully managing the agenda from the sidelines. Whether you’re new to the role or looking for a refresher, our Staffing Meetings: Pulling the Strings from Behind the Scenes workshop is designed to equip you with the skills you need to manage meetings effectively and with discretion.

The Role of Behind-the-Scenes Meeting Managers

We believe in silent leadership. Meetings require balance—keeping the team on track while respecting the authority of the chair. In this workshop, participants will explore the critical roles people play in meetings and learn how to influence the flow of discussion without overpowering the meeting leader.

We don’t believe in overstepping—effective guidance is subtle.

Understanding the Power Dynamics

We believe in mastering the art of influence. Meeting effectiveness often hinges on understanding the individual powers at play. This workshop provides participants with insights into the five sources of individual power within a group, allowing them to navigate these dynamics and keep meetings productive.

We don’t believe in power struggles—understanding power creates smoother interactions.

Overcoming Barriers to Staff Effectiveness

We believe in removing obstacles. Meetings can often be derailed by various barriers—personalities, unclear agendas, or competing priorities. In this workshop, participants will learn how to identify and overcome the basic barriers to staff effectiveness in meetings, ensuring that the group stays focused and aligned on goals.

We don’t believe in inefficiency—every barrier can be addressed.

Mastering Interpersonal Management Strategies

We believe in respectful communication. Managing a meeting from behind the scenes requires strong interpersonal management strategies. Participants will practice these strategies through role-playing and interactive exercises, ensuring they know how to communicate effectively with diverse personality types and keep conversations constructive.

We don’t believe in letting conversations go off track—effective management keeps discussions focused.

Win-Win Conflict Management

We believe in resolving conflict, not escalating it. Meetings can sometimes become heated or tense. This workshop teaches participants how to apply a win-win approach to conflict management, ensuring that disagreements are handled professionally and result in positive outcomes for all parties.

We don’t believe in unnecessary conflict—solutions come from collaboration.
