Bring focus to meetings
Are you tired of drowning in a sea of unproductive meetings? According to the Harvard Business Review article "Dear Manager, You're Holding Too Many Meetings," the modern workplace is plagued by excessive meetings, draining valuable time and resources. But fear not, our program is here to stop the meeting madness. Join us as we equip you with practical strategies and insights to streamline meetings, increase productivity, and bring focus back to your team's discussions.This program is about more than just about cutting down on meetings (although that's part of it!); it's about being agile in our approach to meetings and building a new meeting culture step by step. We'll guide you through the process of deciding what justifies a meeting and what doesn't, bringing focus to meetings, and balancing meetings with other work activities. Say goodbye to wasted hours and hello to efficient, purpose-driven meetings that drive real results.

Meet your trainer
At the kickstart of your 3 - 6 week skills development program, you will follow a webinar delivered by Sarah Cherif, founder and CEO of SkillsGym. Here are a few things you might like to know about her:
Sarah's background
Sarah began her career at the University of Ghent with degrees in child education and philosophy, quickly realizing her passion for teaching. Faced with the challenge of helping seasoned leaders develop soft skills without any prior corporate experience, she turned this disadvantage into a strength by creating evidence-based, sure-proof plans to build strong soft skills through habit formation and impactful conversations.
Personal life
Sarah's roots are Belgian and Tunesian, and she partially grew up in Washington DC. She currently lives in Belgium with her partner Nils (who is co-founder of SkillsGym Health), and has a dog named Lizzy.
20+ years of impact
Together with her SkillsGym team, Sarah has helped numerous world-class organizations like Samsung, Deloitte, Ikea... and thousands of managers and their teams improve their soft skills. SkillsGym now offers programs to accelerate the mastery of 50 essential leadership, team and well-being skills.
Fun fact
Sarah tests all the habits and conversations in the SkillsGym offer herself; that's more than 200+ habits and 200+ conversations. Most of them have become second nature. Yet, as you'll learn in the webinars, she isn't shy to talk about the failures and frustrations along the way.
