Who it is for

Employees who attend meetings regularly and want to show up as a stronger participant, especially those new to a workplace or to more visible cross-functional meetings. Useful for people adjusting to on-camera video meeting norms.

What you will learn

  • Prepare for a meeting so you arrive ready to contribute rather than catching up
  • Follow the unwritten norms of participation, from timeliness and turn-taking to camera and phone use
  • Contribute clearly without dominating, and make room for quieter colleagues
  • Handle side conversations, interruptions, and disagreement professionally in the room

What changes on the job

  • A stronger, more credible presence in meetings you attend
  • Fewer awkward or disruptive moments caused by unclear etiquette
  • Colleagues who see you as prepared and easy to work with

This course is one part of the mix. The same topic runs as a live workshop where a facilitator who has held the role watches you practice, and Coach Taylor follows up afterward.

Talk to ARIA

Ask what you would ask us.

ARIA works the way a good first call works. She asks who is involved and what should change, recommends the closest starting point, quotes the real price, and hands you to a person when you want one.

Questions

Questions about this course.

Is this for people who run meetings or attend them?

Mainly attending. It is about conducting yourself well as a participant. If your focus is on leading meetings, the Meeting Purpose and Effective Meetings lessons go deeper on that.

Does it cover video meetings?

Yes. Camera use, muting, and virtual turn-taking are part of modern meeting etiquette, and the lesson addresses in-person and video settings.
