Meetings Matter: Powerful Strategies for Remarkable Conversations
Paul Axtell, Corvallis, OR: Jackson Creek Press (2015)
Three fundamental practices for effective conversation:
- “Listen in a way that encourages others to keep talking.
- Be responsible for your speaking: be aware of what you say and how you say it.
- Notice when one of these aspects of an effective conversation is missing: clarity, candor, commitment or completion (p.26).”
Meetings Matter is available from the OSU Leadership Center.
