Facilitating Purposeful Meetings

 

Michael interviews Ewen Bailey, formerly the Director of Teaching and Learning at Suzhou Singapore International School (SSIS), about developing middle leaders to be effective meeting facilitators. Ewen answered these questions:

  • During the pandemic we learned to ’team’ without meetings, with all the various collaboration tools that were thrown at us. Do we still need meetings and if so, why?

  • How did you capacity build teams to attend to more than just transactional matters in meetings?

  • How did you help middle leaders foster greater interdependency in their teams, so that they weren’t solely reliable for achieving the team’s goals?
