Time is a hugely valuable asset to every business. UKAUS Pty are concerned that most employees are largely of the opinion that company meetings are unproductive and a waste of their time. As a firm who holds multiple meetings across the week, they are often forced to evaluate the importance of a meeting vs the time taken from their contractor's day.

The firm offers a checklist of how to make business meetings productive:

Know the purpose of the meeting - Question, whether a meeting really is necessary. If so, what needs to be covered? Has an agenda with targeted outcomes been created? Prioritise the items in order of importance. Once the leader of the meeting has established what the purpose is, it can then be shared with the attendees prior to the meeting to inspire ideas.

Respect - To ensure all attendees are mentally present UKAUS Pty has a no gadget rule; this allows full focus to be on the meeting avoiding any distractions. Ensuring all attendees have an opportunity to have input will allow individuals to join in and as a result be more inclined to follow through with actions after the meeting.

Integrity - To keep their contractors motivated UKAUS Pty believe it is important to run the meeting in a timely manner - start and finish on time and include only those who need to be involved. It is crucial to stick to the agenda and make note of any additional topics that arise to be returned to at a later date. Touch on the important points early in the meeting.

Generosity - UKAUS Pty believe that all meetings should be enjoyable, not boring. All information should be delivered in a manner that it is received well, and keep on track.

UKAUS Pty runs voluntary motivational meetings each morning with its contractors, this is believed to be how UKAUS Pty have established and maintained a great company culture.
