This webinar is second in a five part series series on “Meetings That Work” by Solutions Cube. Although this module is a part of the series – each module in the series can be taken individually.

For many people, 50-75% of their work week is spent in meetings that are unproductive, not needed or fail to produce expected results. Valuable people, time and dollar resources are wasted when meeting objectives and expectations are not clear, agendas are not followed, no one or too many people try to take charge of project meetings. Successful meetings that product results don’t just happen, they are planned, prepared for and orchestrated.

Solutions Cube Group’s Planning and Preparing for a Successful Meeting webinar will teach students how to effectively plan and prepare for a successful meeting. They will discover how to engage key stakeholders in the art of planning the success of every meeting that is held.


In the Planning and Preparing for a Successful Meeting webinar, participants learn:

  • Why planning is a core element of every successful meeting
  • How to leverage the iterative process of planning to uncover and align on the expectations of meeting outcomes
  • How to use a planning document as a collaboration tool when preparing for meetings
  • How to use a Statement of Work as a tool to formalize the scope of each meeting
  • How to create consistency in meeting process and outcomes through the use of standardized templates
  • The difference between a published meeting agenda and a facilitator’s agenda and how each contributes to the success of a meeting

SharePoint is an Enterprise Collaboration platform which drives organizational engagement and allows for teams to work on information together in a central portal.

Document libraries are the key tool for document/information lifecycle management.

We regularly work with individual documents and manage the document lifecycle with version control and metadata.

With workflow we apply business processes around individual documents for things like approval and gathering feedback.

SharePoint 2013 Document Sets can treat multiple documents as one work product for the purposes of version control and workflow.

In situations where more than one document is part of the package of information, we can use Document Sets to group the documents together for the purpose of managing them as a group.

This one hour webinar will give an introduction to SharePoint 2013 Document Sets.

Learn:

  1. Why we utilize Documents Sets,
  2. How to create Document Sets,
  3. How version control works with them, and ….
  4. How to implement workflow around Document Sets.

This webinar will give a real world example of implementing an Emergency Preparedness Program utilizing Libraries, Documents Sets, Version History, and Workflow.

The topics that will be covered in this one hour webinar:

  • What are Document Sets?
  • How to build Documents Sets
  • Creating a new Document Set
  • Taking Snapshots
  • Using Document Sets in a Workflow
