How to run a successful group meeting
Group meetings are the best way to ensure that every individual has the opportunity to learn about KECC before you ask them to give.
Group meetings have many benefits, including:
- Providing an environment with less pressure than one-on-one meetings
- Employees receive accurate information to help them make an informed decision
- Meetings can be scheduled to accommodate the work schedule of a particular division, department or location
- Employees can ask direct questions about the KECC
