How to use the thinking to have more productive and quicker meetings.

Everyday thousands of meetings take place: useless, expensive and in the wrong way. Only in the US, the annual cost for “bad meetings” is 37 billion of dollars a year. Middle managers spend 35% of the time in meetings and top managers more than 50%, on average.

Meethink™ course was developed in order to maximise people’s time during meetings and make them more productive. In fact, thanks to the techniques acquired during the course, the participants will learn an easy method that will allow them to save time during meetings and to increase the quantity and the quality of ideas.

Moreover, thanks to the Meethink™ profile test, the participants will discover their dominant thinking styles and the ones of their colleagues too.

Objectives

  • 50% of time saved during meetings.
  • To increase from 100% till 500% the number of ideas during business meetings.
  • To discover the dominant thinking styles.
  • To get to know the creative process for meetings (in addition to brainstorming).

Solutions

  • Base course 2 days
  • Customised coaching

Methodologies base course 2 days

Interactive methodology: theoretical moments and practical exercitation and simulations during the class.

Test - Meethinker™: a test that allow you to discover your thinking styles, and understand what blocks you during meeting management.

Contents

The three phases of Meethink™:

  1. Before the meeting
  2. During the meeting
  3. After the meeting

The parallel thinking and the 10 thinking styles for meetings.

Test - Meethinker™

A test to discover your thinking styles to identify how to exploit the potential, both individual and of the group, in order to have more efficient meetings.

Meeting typologies:

  1. Analytic/evaluative
  2. Creative
  3. OrganizActional
  4. Communicative/informative
  5. Motivational

  2. Transform conflict into opportunity for the group (how to motivate and non-demotivate people during the “Meethink”)

4 roles of a Meethink™

  1. Leader
  2. Facilitator
  3. Recorder
  4. Participants

project mind

Description

Project Mind™ is the result of 20 years of experience in the field of Project Management, together with developed tools of the brain function. The participants will learn how to recognise their dominant thinking styles.

We were mostly inspired by neuroscientific studies and the evolution of Edward de Bono’ thinking, guru of the Creative thinking.

ideam

Several studies on communication have raised an important input: ¾ of the impact of a message depends on the way it’s been communicated, only ¼ depends on the effective content.

It’s important to learn how to communicate in the most efficient way.

This course is focused on the development of rhetorical abilities, of communicative strategies and of elaboration of the speech, both written and oral. The acquired methods range from the classical rhetoric to more developed methods about communication, proposing the IDEAM™ method.

Objectives

  • To provide tools and practical guidance on how to make communication more persuasive.
  • To train yourself with a structured method for the construction of speeches and presentations.
  • To increase rhetorical and communicative ability one to many.
  • To know how to apply communicative strategies of success for objections and questions.
  • To know and apply the features of a great orator.
  • To train your own mental state of excellence.

lidear

 

LIDEARship is the ability to be able to achieve an IDEA.

Creativity becomes action and practical implementation.

In this individual path all the Markethink presuppositions and instruments go hand in hand, adapting them to the individual thinking styles and the ones of the group.

Through an individual Assessment path, we can analyse the thinking styles and go on with a customised development path, both individual and for the group.

Objectives

  • Excellences reinforcement
  • Criticality improvement in relation to the role
  • Team construction with complementary styles in order to create ideas and solutions.

Solutions

Customised path.

Methodology

Initial Assessment, customised coaching.

 

readar

Statistics say that a well-trained lecturer can read 200 words in a minute (w/m) and he is able to understand 30% of the meaning, on average.

ReADAR course is focused on the development of abilities that allow you to increase the reading speed and, most important thing, comprehension.

Objectives

  • Duplicate/Triplicate your own reading speed and your comprehension level of texts.
  • Decrease the reading time.
  Speed (w/m)      Comprehension % Reading Coefficient %

memo

 

The natural functioning of memory means that, after 1 month, we remember just 3% of what we have read and learnt.

This means that the wealth of information we have learnt is intended to be lost.

Applying the memory strategies, it’s possible to improve in a significative way this input, getting to remember in a spontaneous way about 70% of the memorised information after 1 month.

Objectives

  • To learn techniques and methods on how to increase mnemonic abilities.
  • To remember a speech, a presentation and informative contents of any type of presentation.
