			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Facilitating difficult meetings is similar to herding cats. Attendees have diverse opinions and want their opinion to be taken on board. That’s where TpEBO comes in. TpEBO&#8217;s role as facilitator is to ask the right questions and generate engaging conversations amongst attendees so that tangible outcomes come from the meeting.</p>
<p>Believe it or not, 90% of the work takes place before the meeting. We work closely with the client to gain an understanding of what is really needed. What is the best use of attendees’ time? What are the issues facing the people in the room? Who will be in the room and why? What do we want to achieve in a short space of time?</p>
<p>Meetings are intense ranging  from 1 hour to 3 days for large and small groups, face to face and in virtual  environments. Sessions are practical and structured to provoke thought  and designed so attendees face the hard questions early on.</p>
<p>Once a common issue has been identified,TpEBO works on aligning thinking and what actions attendees need to take once the meeting is over.</p>
<p>We are down to earth and operate in a low-key way; this allows you, the client to take credit for a wonderful session! Be warned&#8230;we will challenge you to ensure that your meeting is as productive and effective as possible.</p>
<p>Feel free to talk to us about your needs for professional facilitator and rapporteur services. <a href="http://tpebo.com/site/services/online-registration/">Contact us here.</a></p>

<h2>Urgent; Important; Planned; Ad-hoc</h2>
<p>3. Write down ALL of the things that you have to do &#8211; decide if it is urgent, important, planned or ad hoc and put it into the relevant panel<br />
4. Review.</p>
<p>What do you want to achieve? What&#8217;s the purpose of this list? What can you delegate? What can you ignore or dump? What one action will make a huge difference to your level of performance?<br />
The list may look like alot, if you review it&#8217;s purpose, rewrite it if you need to and chunk it down into small pieces, it is possible to manage your to-do&#8217;s effectively and perform at a higher level.</p>
<p>5. Rewrite the list and allocate dates (Tip: We use Astrid and google calendar and it&#8217;s great)</p>
