Successful Public Meetings by Elaine Cogan Pdf

Public meetings can be unpredictable, messy, hostile--or satisfying and successful. Good public meetings, the author explains, are the result of proper planning and execution by a staff trained in all the important details. In this book, Elaine Cogan, an experienced meeting designer and facilitator, spells out the key elements of successful public meetings: defining the purpose, selecting the best format and venue, publicizing the meeting, setting up the room, making presentations, dealing with potentially difficult or disruptive people, and conducting an evaluation process. With checklists for meeting planners and clear explanations of a number of innovative techniques, the author shows how public agencies, even those with the most limited resources, can have successful public meetings.
