Managing Task Forces, Committees and Work Groups:

How to Get a Reputation as a Good Leader

Running a small group is an important undertaking, and leaders have a challenging role to play in coordinating meeting strategies. Leaders must learn to manage their groups effectively and efficiently to encourage the future success of organizational initiatives. Effective meetings allow groups to get the work done, while efficient meetings avoid wasting the valuable time of members.

From this course: Make Positive Outcomes Out of Problem Behaviors

  • Maintaining a clear focus on group members roles, goals and outcomes
  • Dealing with conflicts of interest and other disruptive behaviors
  • How to communicate effectively in a group and move from discussion to decision
