🌟 Sign up NowHey, there! AmyK here.
Since I know you’re a busy Leader, going 90mph while juggling a growing pile of stuff on your plate —
let’s cut right to the chase.
.....
How often do you sit through a meeting and think:
“This is a complete waste of my time!”
I.e., there’s NO reason for you to be in that meeting.
Most meetings look like this:
A total data dump.
....
People are NOT engaged. People are “tuned out”, anxious… in other words, they’re a snooze fest!
What we’re doing is just going through the motions. On autopilot.
And that’s not good for anyone — for your team, your colleagues, for your company, and most of all…
your own Energy levels.
Sometimes it feels like, well, that your Soul has been sucked right out of you!
....
Maybe we’re being a lil’ dramatic here lol … but then again, sometimes it really IS that bad! 🤦
(Uh, huh, I see you nodding your head over there!)
....
In addition to the “data dump” style meetings, there are a few other common soul-sucking scenarios that have you wondering whether you really should have just called in “sick” instead.
Keep nodding if you can relate to these other meeting scenarios:
Scenario 1: The Dead Horse
During this meeting you’re really getting into the weeds of it. And then, before you know it… you’ve stayed there way too long, and you’re asking yourself,
“Omg, are we really gonna beat this dead horse over and over again…?”
You leave the meeting feeling drained and like you need a day a week off to recuperate.
Scenario 2: The Dominator
Instead of getting balanced input from the whole team, one or two people dominate the meeting. John & Jane take hold of the talking stick, and they just never. let. it. go.
So frustrating, because you were waiting for the opportunity to share the incredible ideas you’ve been working on all week — however, the meeting ended without being able to get a single word in. Ugh.
Scenario 3: The Switcheroo
Someone hijacks the meeting and it becomes all about their personal agenda.
“Um, I’m sorry Sally, I didn’t realize this meeting was going to be all about you and how unsupported you feel. I thought it was going to be about our collective marketing campaign.”
You just wish there was a respectful yet firm way to take back control of the conversation in situations like these.
Scenario 4: The So-So Syndrome
And finally, in this scenario … maybe your meetings are actually “fine.” Notice I didn’t say, ‘Great.’ They’re just okay. Not bad, but also you KNOW they could be better.
You desire for your time together with your team to be engaging … and you want to lead meetings that everyone (including yourself) genuinely looks forward to and walks out of feeling like,
“Wow, I’m fired up, my brain is buzzin' & I'm ready to make some magic happen!”
And let me tell you, the shift from “so-so” to “so inspiring!” ABSOLUTELY IS possible. 💫
This is exactly the work I do with my one-on-one clients, in my company trainings and in my Leadership Retreats.
....
Here’s why I'm so passionate about igniting your MEETINGS:
⏱️ Just think about how much time Leaders (that’s you!) spend in meetings each month.
👉 Statistically, an executive will spend their time in 62 meetings per month!
👉 That’s roughly 3 meetings per business DAY.
If you look at your calendar right now … maybe you’ve got even more on the books!
This statistic shows just how important this work is.
....
That’s 3 hours of your time every single work day that can be elevated from “just ok” to “WOW.” That’s on average 62 meetings per month that could be on a whole different feeling level of inspiration, motivation and fulfillment.
Dare I say, even … FUN?! 🤩
And do I double dare say that more effective meetings could even reduce your number of meetings?!
Just imagine the shift in the quality of your work life, as well as your business RESULTS!
👉 YES, I want to STOP SOUL-SUCKING Meetings!Elevating the quality of your meetings has the power to turn around your entire mood, energetic state, productivity and RESULTS.
And if you’ve been in my world for a while, you’ve heard me say a bagillion times that Your ENERGY = EVERYTHING.
It's time to elevate the energy in your meetings and elevate your results!
If you’re thinking, “That sounds amazing AmyK! How do we make it happen?” — you’re exactly in the right place.
In SGI’s “How to STOP SOUL-SUCKING Meetings” Masterclass Intensive —
we’re going to take ALL your meetings — whether you’re leading or participating — to the next level.
This Masterclass Intensive is all about upping the level of engagement and critical thinking — before, during and after your meetings. This means, you’re saying a firm “No” to allowing your time and other people’s time to be wasted in meetings from this point forward!
As a forward-thinking Leader, I KNOW how important your time is to you …
and “How to Stop Soul-Sucking Meetings” will give you the tools & techniques to make sure you’re maximizing your precious time AND energy …
… even when dealing with people interrupting, bloviating, dominating the talking stick, going way off track, and the myriad of other distractions that can pop up in the conference room.
Plus, we’ll put the SOUL back in, too.
.....
HERE'S HOW WE'LL DO IT:
🌟 First, we’ll go over the 4 Essential Criteria that always need to be fulfilled to have a BRILLIANT meeting with your team
whether the setting is a marketing meeting, branch operations meeting, your quarterly evaluations, weekly in house and HR meeting, customer discovery meetings — you name it.
🌟 We’ll then learn the 4 Essential Communication Techniques
that will take your meetings from the kind of meetings where people tune out and have one foot out the door (“Hmm, is it time for lunch yet?”)
… into meetings that your team members actually look forward to, because they’re being called upon to share their expertise, think creatively, and rise to challenges that are positive and intrinsically motivating.
As Lisa shared after she implemented my meeting tools:
“Wow! I have not seen the entire team (42 peeps) so engaged in a meeting in a good while."
"The body language for everyone was the same – all leaning in, all using their hands to talk, all contributing. It was amazing.
Everyone is looking forward to our next meeting. I can’t thank you enough, AmyK, for all your help. My team shared that this new approach was a bright spot in our staff meetings and gave them hope for a more collaborative environment.”
- LISA B. | Vice President, Development and Donor Services/Communications
You’ll walk away with powerful, actionable tools to:
✅ Transform mundane goals into engaging creative challenges that your team is actually excited about!
- We’ll learn how to move away from low-level data questions to specific, highly effective Magical Questions that not only inspire your teams’ creativity, but significantly elevate the quality of the goals you’re setting as a team. Double win!
✅ Boost engagement and genuine buy-in before, during AND after your meeting to build momentum and maximize follow-through.
- Let’s be honest, we all know that person that comes in 7 minutes late with their coffee in hand who’s like, “Hiiii! So, what’s this meeting about again today?” — Ummm, no. Not happening in your meetings anymore! ;)
- With these techniques, you’ll be able to harness the creativity and intelligence of your team members BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER the meeting, so that you’re not starting from zero but hitting the ground running together and sustaining this momentum.
✅ Set up the overarching framework and ‘guardrails’ of your meeting for a forward-focused, efficient and productive result.
- To accomplish this, you’ll get a bunch of brilliant Magical Phrases that will help you to hook your colleague’s attention, manage the talking stick in your meetings for a robust dialogue, deal with interrupters & bloviators, and how to give credit where it’s due.
✅ Learn how to troubleshoot & be response-ready in all scenarios.
- You may be thinking, “Hmm, but what happens if my team members don’t respond well?” I got you covered! We’ll troubleshoot where you might get stuck — and get you response-ready in case a team member doesn’t respond to the above techniques.
- We’ll also learn how to meet people where they’re at & how to design your meetings to bring out the best of each personality type.
- You’ll also get a ton of Magical Phrases on how to de-escalate conflict, and get the conversation back on track – pronto.
✅ And most importantly … you’ll learn how to ask the *right* Magical Questions that ignite people’s highest form of critical thinking for enhanced idea generation and collaboration.
- Although it sounds simple, the act of asking the right questions alone has the power to completely take your meetings to another level of performance quality.
- Asking the *right* questions will constantly keep your people in the highest forms of critical thinking that the brain is capable of.
- You’ll highly expand your team members’ awareness, creativity, critical thinking, AND results.
✅ *BONUS* ~ We’ll also learn how to lead a LIVE “Lightning Round” to harness the collective intelligence of your team in a fun & engaging way!
- My previous clients have said that this exercise alone was a complete game-changer for transforming the quality of their meetings AND results.
- What’s so phenomenal about implementing this technique, is that it will guide your team members to put aside their ego, and make every voice count!
- You’ll start having a robust dialogue by up-leveling everyone’s critical thinking and generating new insights and wisdom.
- We’ll experience a Lighting Round LIVE during class, using one of your REAL life challenges as an example! You’ll get to experience first hand the incredible results that it generates as well as how to lead your own.
Now take a moment to imagine …
