That, in turn, determines what kind of meeting you should conduct: informational, advisory, or problem-solving. The author breaks down the essential tasks involved and even suggests the right type of person to handle each one. She describes various types of troublesome meeting attendees-from accusers and apathetics to fence-sitters and know-it-alls-and offers advice on how to deal tactfully but firmly with them all. The author also tackles working effectively with the media, a subject that terrifies most planners. True stories of public meetings, both good and bad, add humor to her no-nonsense narrative. Follow her step-by-step checklist and leave nothing to chance.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45548399427822,"sku":"9781884829383","price":55.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/successful-public-meetings-2nd-ed-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
