Meetings are notoriously not awesome. The Meeting Maximizer has a scientific process to stop these evil, money gobbling meetings. Maximize your Meeting R.O.I. The best meetings include these 3 steps: 1) Eliminate Distractions 2) Streamline Agendas 3) Create Interaction

---MAXIMIZE your meeting and conference. No matter where you are in the planning process, the Meeting Maximizer can help eliminate the common problems and reduce the risk of the meeting failure.

---ANALYZE your current plan to diagnose potential pitfalls, fire hazards and liabilities. Prescribe solutions, prevention and back up plans.

---X FACTOR - In my experience with meetings, events, speaking, people can have great ideas, but not everyone can execute them. We will build an action plan to achieve your goals.

---IMPLEMENT - We will create implementations plans with detailed timelines and procedures to streamline efforts.

---MANAGE - We can manage the process, by helping you prioritize the most important tasks.

---INNOVATE - With all of the new technology and changes in our lifestyle, conferences must change too. Doing the conference the way its always been done is costly and unappealing. In order to capture the majority of the attendeess attention, it takes an innovative strategy.

Testimonials

"This was by far the best off-site activity kick-off I've ever been involved in. We all laughed our heads off and truly got to know new things about each other. So many times I witnessed a new perspective on how a teammate approached a problem. I liked your use of really simple concepts that engaged the entire group." ??

Aaron Bratrude, TPAM Manager,Microsoft, WA

"We had tremendous improvement in employee satisfaction"I want to say almost off the charts. At the same time, we've had tremendous increases in productivity within the department."

Wayne Robinson, CFO, Perkins Coie, WA

"In this time of tight company budgets, Jolene was worth every penny. She knows how to engage, motivate and organized a room full of type "A" people."

Deborah L. Tom, Communications Manager, Microsoft, WA

All of the activities were successful in creating a greater more sustainable sense of teaming and of enjoying your colleagues company and perspectives. Jolene anticipated my needs. To quote one of my team members, "I've never experienced a program like that ever! It was well worth the travel." I received flattering reviews from my team and multiple thank you notes for the non PowerPoint format of the session. Jolene provides a good ROI in my opinion and I will continue to work with her and will be happy to provide referrals to my peers inside and outside the company."
