...communication that is most commonly known as the meeting. The idea of meetings stretches across all industries and cultures, and has the potential to be extremely effective. The trouble is though, workplace meetings do not always meet their potential and are not as effective as they could be. A manager’s ability to lead an efficient and effective meeting is a very important skill to have within the realm of communication. In order to try and find out what it takes to run an effective meeting, several sources written by academics will be summarized and examined. To begin with, summaries of all the sources will be given, in order to gain a grasp on the general knowledge of meetings within the literature. Following that, it will be looked at what the different authors agree on and disagree on. Finally, the information from all the articles will be brought together in order to give a conclusion on what managers need to do in order to run meetings effectively. With many top managers saying that 60-80% of their day goes into meetings (Bang et al, 2010), it is integral that managers have knowledge of how to properly organize and facilitate meetings in the workplace. The first article that will be looked at is written by Bang et al (2010), and is titled Effectiveness in top management group meetings: The role of goal clarity, focused communication, and learning behaviour. Within the article, the authors look at the idea of having a clear goal for meetings. There were three thesis’ made, but the...

Telepresence products provide the highest-quality videoconferencing available on the market to date. Only a handful of companies, such as Cisco, HP, and Polycom, supply these products. 3. What are the ways in which videoconferencing provides value to a business? Would you consider it smart management? Explain your answer. Ans-2: Yes, I would consider it smart management because in businesses where the company men need to interact and communicate constantly with people from various locations especially foreign, it is a very effective. It allows for 'better' meetings as well: it's easier to meet with partners, suppliers, subsidiaries, and colleagues from within the office or around the world on a more frequent basis, which in most cases simply cannot be reasonably accomplished through travel. They can also meet with contacts that they wouldn't be able to meet at all without videoconferencing technology. Moreover, videoconferencing makes it possible to reach the customers faster and close the deal quicker. 4. If you were in charge of a small business, would you choose to implement videoconferencing? What factors would you consider in your decision? Ans-3: There are some factors which should be...
