130. Feel More Confident Leading Meeting...

Anna Connelly, Anna Connelly.
About this episode

THIS IS AN ANNA WITH 2Ns EPISODE BEFORE I REBRANDED TO CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH. I RECOMMEND STARTING WITH THE MOST RECENT CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH EPISODES.
There are different roles in a meeting but leading a meeting is perhaps the most important. You've got to welcome and introduce people, kick off, keep the flow of the meeting going and make sure that people contribute and stick to the agenda. This is nothing new in your own language but in English I know it might feel overwhelming at times when you have 5 people staring at you waiting for the meeting to start. Let me help you with some core vocabulary for each phase of standard business meeting.

Enjoy! Anna
