During the meeting there is information exchange between subordinates and the manager, management decisions are made. Experience shows that business meetings do not always bring due the effect is due to the fact that many managers have a unclear understanding of the technology of their organization and implementation. In some cases, business meetings are convened too often and poorly prepared; too many people are involved in their implementation, and certainly the “first” leaders; unreasonable duration of meetings reduces their effectiveness; finally, decisions made at business meetings are often poorly formalized and poorly controlled during implementation, which significantly reduces their effectiveness, and therefore there is a need for a repeat meeting on the same issues. Business meeting - a way to attract the collective mind to production optimal solutions for the latest and most complex issues arising at the enterprise. The management process in this regard comes down to three main stages: collection and information processing; coordination the activities of all services of the company and all employees; decision-making. In addition to its direct purpose, each rationally organized meeting also solves an important educational task. At the meeting, employees learn to work in a team, take an integrated approach to solving common problems, reach compromises, acquire a culture of communication, etc. For some employees, being at a business meeting is the only opportunity to see and hear managers higher levels management. In addition, at a business meeting, the manager is given the opportunity to show his talent as a manager. Thus, management actions manager are supplemented by collective meetings (meetings), at which everyday business issues and problems are resolved. In this regard, we can formulate the main tasks solved through business meetings: policy development and strengthening enterprises and its implementation; integration activities of all departments and services, taking into account the general goals of the company; identifying and calculating collective results; collective solution problems taking into account the learning effect. Classification of business meetings Business meetings are a special type labor organization, acting in a very short time and having a certain focus. Meetings are classified according to the following main characteristics: 1. By purpose: developing and making decisions; clarifying and clarifying tasks for the implementation of previously made decisions; summing up and assessing previously made decisions; operational (control rooms); 2. According to the frequency (frequency) of the event:
3. By the number of participants: narrow composition (up to five Human); extended (up to twenty people); representative (over twenty people); 4. According to the degree of stability of the composition of meeting participants: with a fixed composition; with those invited according to the list compiled for each meeting; combined; 5. By accessory: party (and other public organizations); administrative; scientific and scientific-technical; united. Organization technologyand holding business meetings To achieve the goals of the meeting, it is necessary to thoroughly prepare and clearly organize its holding, taking into account the totality of mandatory elements. Preparing for a meeting begins with determining the need and feasibility of holding a business meeting. When justifying the need for a meeting, the manager must formulate tasks that require an optimal and timely solution. A meeting makes sense if there is a need to exchange information; identifying opinions and alternatives; analysis of complex (non-standard) situations; making decisions regarding complex issues. The manager must analyze all alternatives for holding the meeting: the decision of the senior manager; the ability to resolve the issue over the phone; conference call - the ability to combine with other (scheduled) meetings. And if after this the manager is convinced of the usefulness of the meeting, it can be held. Otherwise, the meeting must be abandoned. After a decision has been made on the need to hold a meeting, the agenda and composition of its participants are determined. When preparing the agenda, it is necessary to determine: 1) the topic of the relevant meeting and the content of the problems discussed; 2) the conditions that the final result of the meeting must satisfy in order to determine the purpose of the meeting; 3) who should carry out what preparatory work (it is advisable to create working group to formulate the agenda, holding preliminary meetings in departments). Basic mistakes that are allowed when forming the agenda: Absence main topic meetings (does not allow for their precise delimitation and appropriate analytical support); The essence of the problem being discussed was not previously explained to the participants; inclusion on the agenda of issues of varying scope and content, as a result of which the meeting turns into a discussion or even swearing between its individual participants; The number of participants placed in the position of passive listeners increases; Deviation from the agenda, consideration of side topics that arose spontaneously, or some “eternal” problem (for example, supply issues, etc.). Participants, time and place of the meeting When deciding on the composition of participants, it is necessary to take a particularly careful approach to the formation of a list of quantitative and qualitative composition. It is necessary to attract officials who are most competent in the problem under discussion to participate in the meeting, and, as practice shows, they are not always heads of departments. Regarding the number of meeting participants, you should not invite as many people as there are chairs in the meeting room (invitations for mass participation). The optimal option is to match the number of meeting participants with the number of those actively participating in the discussion of the issue. The main criterion for selecting participants for a future business meeting is competence in the issues on the agenda. It is necessary to determine the day and time of the event. It is recommended to set aside a specific day of the week for a meeting, which allows meeting participants to properly plan their work time and prepare for it. The best day for a meeting is Wednesday or Thursday, since the weekly performance curve has a noticeable decline on Monday and Friday. From the theory of biorhythms it is known that a person experiences two peaks of increased performance during the working day: the first - from 11 to 12 o'clock; the second - between 16 and 18 hours. Because any meeting disrupts the rhythm labor activity, it is not advisable to carry it out in the first half of the working day (first peak). The most common mistakes made when determining the duration of a meeting: The main mistakes made during a meeting: * its duration is not regulated; * the established duration is not observed; * meetings are too long; * no breaks are taken; * no time limit for reports and speeches; * participants do not know how to express their thoughts briefly and clearly. As a rule, the location of a significant part (more than 70%) of business meetings is the office of the head of the organization. However, it is better to convene the meeting in premises specially equipped for this purpose. Typically, those invited to a meeting sit at a table that has a rectangular shape. This is extremely inconvenient for both the leader and the meeting participants. Another, more convenient shape of the table, trapezoidal, is known. At such a table, no one bothers anyone, each participant clearly sees everyone else, and the chairman and secretary-stenographer clearly see each participant in the business meeting. The room must have good sound insulation, normal temperature and relative humidity, comfortable furniture for work, ventilation, etc. Mistakes that are often made when determining the location of a meeting: etc. The main mistakes made when determining the location of the meeting: too much a lot of meetings are held in the boss’s office; During the meeting, telephone conversations are conducted and even visitors are received; The meeting room is poorly equipped and insufficiently lit. . Preparation of participants and duration of the meeting Preparation of meeting participants - final stage preparatory work in the procedure for organizing business meetings, when a preliminary familiarization of all participants with the agenda and necessary materials is provided. Everyone should know the topic and objectives of the meeting in advance. Each manager must correctly determine the procedure for holding a meeting depending on the goal. But even when it is successfully formulated, there is always a hidden level of goals that, as a rule, are not spoken about, but which must be taken into account. For example: if representatives of departments take part in a meeting, the interests of each of them become hidden goals. The sales department is against anything that could negatively affect its sales activities. The production department strives to prevent the sales department from having a greater opportunity to dictate production schedules and plans, etc., after the meeting. Thus, each department considers its main task to maintain or even increase its “gains”: rights, privileges and power. Hidden motives drive meeting participants to engage in obstructionist tactics. They may try to create confusion about the purpose of the meeting from the very beginning. Another reliable way to block a discussion is to raise new, complex side issues, and do this constantly when the meeting is approaching a clear formulation of goals. Another destructive force is the demand for such explanations from a speaker who, for the sake of simplicity of presentation, speaks in generalities. This tactic makes the problem so complex and intractable that a proposal for additional discussion is immediately made, and this is enough to put it on the back burner. |

Another reliable way to block a discussion is to raise new, complex side issues, and do this constantly when the meeting is approaching a clear formulation of goals. Another destructive force is the demand for such explanations from a speaker who, for the sake of simplicity of presentation, speaks in generalities. This tactic makes the problem so complex and intractable that a proposal for additional discussion is immediately made, and this is enough to put it on the back burner. Optimal duration of joint mental activity large number people is only 40-45 minutes. 40-60 minutes after the start of the meeting, the attention of its participants weakens: noise, unnecessary movements, and conversations begin. If you continue the meeting without a break, then most participants become tired. After a 30-40 minute break, those present feel better, their normal state is restored, and the discussion of problems can continue. After 90 minutes of work, attention and interest in the problems discussed disappear. This stage Experts call meetings a period of negative activity. At this moment, the person becomes uncontrollable, treats everything nervously and distrustfully. Decisions made at such times are usually extremist. If the meeting continues without a break for 2 hours, then more than 90% of its participants agree to any decision, as long as everything ends quickly. Thus, the optimal duration of the meeting is no more than 1 hour. If circumstances require longer work, then after 40 minutes of the meeting it is necessary to announce a 10-15 minute break. Psychological aspects of the workshop Work meeting is one of the main tools with the help of which the Organization develops management decisions and monitors their implementation. Work meeting: Fixes the presence of a problem situation; Considers short-, medium- and long-term forecasts for the development of the situation as a whole and in the most important aspects (projections) for the Organization; Determines the level of threats to the Organization and possible alternative solutions to problems; Determines the availability of resources needed to solve the problem, and possible options their use; Documents all necessary aspects of the implementation of the decision developed by him (or received from the management of the Corporation); Documents personal responsibility for the implementation of individual elements (stages) of the decision made, and also creates a mechanism for monitoring its implementation. Basic methods of decision making in a group Lack of response - the decision is made not on the basis of a critical assessment of possible options, but at the moment when an alternative is found, to which there is no negative reaction from anyone present Rule of seniority - the decision for the entire group is made by the eldest of those present by position; effectiveness depends on whether he has received enough full information and whether he managed to motivate the other participants Minority rule - the group has non-majority leaders (formal and informal) who are able, using the procedures adopted in the Organization, to ensure the adoption of the decision in which they are interested Majority rule – voting procedures are used to evaluate alternatives; A decision for which a majority determined by the procedures adopted in the Organization has voted is considered adopted (50%+1, 67%, etc.); minority opinions are not taken into account The Consensus Rule is similar to the “Majority Rule”, but requires achieving a situation where all representatives of the “losing” minority are ready to support the decision being made Techniques used by a leader to enhance group cohesion Apply methods of rewarding your team members that provide maximum rewards for collectively achieved results Use decision-making methods based on informing your team members as much as possible, openness of discussion, collegiality (from the Consensus Rule to the Unanimity Rule) Take (confidentially) measures to increase the competition of your team with other groups (teams) Take (confidential) measures to increase the communication and information isolation of your team members from other teams If possible, reduce the size of your team by rejecting “dissidents” (increasing the level of “homogeneity”) Techniques used by a leader to weaken group cohesion Expand the use of incentive methods that provide maximum rewards for results achieved personally, based on individual performance indicators Expand the use of decision-making methods based on the minimum possible information and the use of formal procedures (Majority Rule) Take (confidentially) measures aimed at creating discord within the group and reducing intergroup competition Take (confidential) measures to increase the level of openness of the group and increase intra-group competition If possible, increase the size of the group by attracting “dissidents” (increasing the level of “heterogeneity”) The main tasks of the manager in preparing and holding a meeting The first task of the manager is to assess the importance of the problem, think through possible scenarios, choose a decision-making method that corresponds to the strategic priorities of the Organization’s policy, and give instructions for preparing the meeting The second task of the manager is to conduct the meeting in such a way that a constructive discussion of the participants takes place, allowing to obtain the most complete information on the problem, identify the main alternative scenarios for the development of events and the most effective management decisions The third task of the manager is to achieve consensus (to convince everyone present that the decision being made is optimal from the point of view of implementing the strategy and policy of the Organization) The fourth task of the manager is to distribute personal responsibility for the implementation of the decision as a whole, its individual parts and control over execution. The main task of the speaker The main task of the speaker is to prepare: Your speech Handouts Draft decision In the way that Inform those present at the meeting as fully as possible about the existing problem(s); Highlight the main alternative solutions to the problem and assess their provision with the necessary resources; Assess the comparative effectiveness of possible solution options and highlight the most likely scenarios for the development of the situation; Involve those present in a constructive dialogue on the issues discussed. Proper preparation for a meeting allows you not only to prepare and accept effective solution, but also allows you to give it a collective form, which psychologically optimally motivates employees for its conscious implementation. Persuasion procedure includes 4 types of persuasive influences:
3. The proof is based on three fundamental laws of logic:
Main elements of proof: Rules for constructing a thesis · The thesis must be formulated extremely clearly and clearly, without allowing for the possibility of ambiguity in its understanding and interpretation. Errors in the choice of words, leading to ambiguity in the formulation of the thesis, allowing it to be interpreted ambiguously, can be used by opponents both to discredit the thesis itself and to discredit the leader who makes mistakes. · During the proof, the thesis must remain unchanged - that is, the same statement must be proven (of course, if during the proof process you did not understand that you yourself made a mistake in the formulation). Keep the thesis statement under your control throughout the meeting; do not allow the thesis to be lost; please pay attention Special attention to opponents’ attempts to partially or completely replace it. Main problems in using abstracts
Basic requirements for arguments For arguments to be convincing, they must meet the following requirements: · Only such provisions can be used as arguments, the truth of which has been previously proven and does not raise doubts among anyone present; at least one weak argument can “bury” the entire proof; · Arguments must have an autonomous justification - that is, there must be a justification for them, different and independent from the justification of the thesis; they should not contradict generally known facts; · Arguments must be consistent with each other; · The arguments must be sufficient - there should be neither too many nor too few. Rules and conclusion of the meeting Everyone knows what it is regulations, but not everyone follows it. If the rules of the meeting are not established before the start of the meeting, then prerequisites arise for a non-business environment for the meeting. A special role in observing the rules belongs to the chairman of the meeting. However, every participant in the meeting must show respect for the rules, regardless of the position he occupies. The minutes of the meeting are the primary official document, on the basis of which the manager has the right to demand that employees perform the tasks assigned to them. The secretary of the meeting records the most important points in the minutes: achieving the purpose of the meeting; solutions; performers and deadlines. The final stage of organizing and holding a meeting is making a decision and agreeing on the conditions for its implementation. Decisions at the meeting are made by everyone together and by everyone individually. The effectiveness of the meeting depends on the extent to which the meeting participant was able to include his ideas and comments into the overall decision. The formulation of the decision explains: by whom and in what time frame a certain amount of work must be completed. It is determined in what form the results will be summed up (distribution of the protocol or part of it (extracts from the protocol), a decision is made on the breadth of information (the entire team or part of it). Decisions can be made in two ways: 1) a specially elected commission for preparing the decision draws up a draft in advance. The project is being read. The meeting participants make their own adjustments and accept it based on the voting results; 2) the chairman of the meeting sums up the discussion and formulates a decision. After a decision is made, a person (group of persons) is determined to carry out its implementation and control over its implementation. Conclusion Organizations that achieve success differ from their counterparts mainly because they have more dynamic and effective leadership. This means that the success of any business is determined by how actively and consciously people participate in it. That is why socio-psychological management methods aimed at achieving the set goal, influencing the final result of the enterprise’s activities, are essential and fundamental for the manager. A business meeting is one of the most responsible activities of a manager and an important factor influencing the organization of the work schedule of the entire team. The need for meetings is obvious. They are necessary to speed up the adoption process and increase their validity, for the effective exchange of opinions and experience, for faster delivery of specific tasks to the performer, but most importantly, for emotional impact on the meeting participants and, as a result, on the entire team. A meeting is a complex process and when conducting it, it is necessary to take into account a huge number of psychological patterns and rules. Objective reality is currently forcing all organizational leaders to face the problem of increasing the efficiency of their work, the productive use of every minute of working time. Summarizing all of the above, I would like to once again draw attention to the relevance of the distribution of working time of each head of the organization, to his ability to clearly, clearly, quickly convey information to his subordinates, to receive everything necessary information from them, make timely and correct decisions. Business meeting is one of the most popular types business communication, including for solving problems in the field of economics, finance, and management. A business meeting is relevant anytime, anywhere. Literature 3. Kabushkin N L. Fundamentals of management: Textbook. manual - 5th ed., stereotype. - Mn.: New knowledge, 2002. - 336
