The importance of business meetings
There are many benefits to conducting regular staff meetings. Here are a few of the positive things meetings can bring to your team:
Facilitate better collaboration: To develop the best solutions and processes, it's essential to involve everyone. It's possible to learn a great deal from each other in a collaborative work environment.
Improve communication: Besides sending direct messages and emails, meetings are a better way to communicate. They allow participants the opportunity to ask questions and understand a subject.
Familiarise teams: Meetings allow everyone to get to know each other better and build a stronger bond. As an example, small companies may benefit from using virtual phone calls or video chats to communicate with each other.
Etiquette for business meetings
Depending on the venue and purpose, business meetings may require a certain level of etiquette from those in attendance. You can show proper etiquette by following these guidelines:
  • Dress appropriately. Dressing in business attire is a good way to show respect and professionalism for other attendees.
  • Arrive early. Whether you're in charge of the meeting or just a participant, it's critical to arrive on time so you can be ready for the meeting and adhere to any schedule the creator may have established.
  • Introduce yourself. You may find yourself in a meeting with colleagues from other departments or sometimes with customers, so introduce yourself to everyone you've never met before.
  • Participate in active listening. Focus is a sign of respect in a meeting, which includes making eye contact, nodding and taking notes on the most critical aspects. This shows the speaker that their time is appreciated.
  • Turn off your cell phone. When in a meeting, ensure your phone's volume is turned down so you don't distract yourself or others.

Tips for concluding a business meeting
Just as important as the preparation and conduct of your meetings is the way you end them. For a positive and motivating conclusion, you can take these several steps:
  • Thank participants. Thank attendees for taking time away from their regular duties to attend your meeting. This can help them feel appreciated and respected.
  • End with a call to action. End the meeting by outlining the next steps, and ask participants to use the ideas discussed in the meeting.
  • Ask note-takers to type up and send meeting minutes. Thank the note-taker and request they type up the meeting minutes so you can distribute them to the rest of the attendees.
  • Follow up. If a follow-up is necessary, do so via email to monitor progress and assess the value of the meeting.
