How It Helps Your Business English

A professional asked to lead a meeting needs more than a list of phrases. This lesson presents ten strategies, from sharing the agenda in advance to closing with clear next steps.

Each strategy includes example phrases, such as how to open the meeting, ask targeted questions and keep participants on topic. The lesson can be followed in order before leading a meeting.

The lesson is aimed at people who lead meetings, so some parts will be less useful to those who only attend. Some of the wording is general and should be adapted to the team concerned.
