Cats on ketamine

How often do you find yourself herding cats in a meeting?

What about if they’re unconscious, suffer from short-term memory loss or even worse—detached from the meeting itself? I was left in a similar situation recently. And it got me thinking.

In that moment, I needed a better way.

A better way for everyone to conduct themselves. A better definition of what was required.

But I hadn’t done the prep. I hadn’t laid the groundwork.

I hadn’t introduced what acceptable behaviour looked like. And more importantly—what unacceptable behaviour would look like.

Next time, I’ll use the EGSP® Leadership Model.

But next time, I’ll make sure it’s done before the meeting starts.
