Oftentimes the level of productivity in a meeting can indicate the health of an entire culture. A bad meeting can very well be a symptom of processes and critical relationships eroding under the pressures of running a successful business. While Soundboard includes meeting analysis, executive team meetings, and company off-sites in our overall process you can also retain a Soundboard facilitator to manage a critical meeting or refresh your organizations standards around collaboration.

Every meeting has its own unique dynamics, driven by the personalities in attendance and the issues at hand. It is difficult to juggle these dynamics while actively participating in the meeting at the same time. Soundboard facilitators can free you to participate more effectively in your own meetings. Our Soundboard Facilitators focus on all aspects of the meeting process so that the sessions are more productive, time-effective and achieve clearly defined goals and expected results.

At Soundboard, we are highly skilled at creating and enforcing ground rules, guiding groups, keeping meetings energized, fostering open collaboration and ensuring everyone’s voice is heard.

Our team manages/facilitates this process in over 150 meetings/sessions per year. We guarantee that our clients leave each session with actionable items to work on and a Soundboard Team member is available to them to follow-up with and/or reach out to at any time.

Our proven three-step process that consists of pre-meeting planning, facilitation of the event, and post-meeting follow-up. From start to finish, this process is designed to:

  • Maximize participation without wasting time
