In this episode of "3 Minutes Max. - Human Skills in the Age of AI," Andre Ottlik and his AI co-host Jules explore the art of steering meetings with strategic interruptions and smart questioning. Inspired by a Deloitte survey, we embark on a journey to enhance team innovation through active participation.
Andre introduces two actionable tips to transform your meetings over the weekend. Tip 1: Hone your questioning techniques. By initiating meetings with goal-oriented questions, you naturally introduce structure and focus. Ask about the meeting's purpose and expected outcomes to ensure a constructive environment.
Tip number 2 emphasizes active visualization—take charge of documenting decisions in real-time. Offer to take minutes and utilize tools like screen sharing or online whiteboards to illustrate meeting outcomes. Clarify deadlines and responsibilities, adding an extra layer of organization and clarity.
Andre and Jules encourage you to consider which meetings would benefit from your proactive support. Over the weekend, rehearse these steps and be ready to implement them.
