Confidently Chair Any Meeting: : Don't forget to BOOKEND your meetings

📢 Transform Your Meetings CHAIR with Confidence!

Hi, I'm Susan Leahy! Academic Senates can often be a mix of politics, ego, and contention. But don't worry, I've got you covered. In this video, I'll share how I helped Dr. G. Sandoval, President of the University Senate at the University of Oregon, successfully chair his first meeting using Robert’s Rules and boosting his confidence.

🌟 Dr. G. Sandoval’s Testimonial: "Thanks so much, Susan. You made chairing my first Academic Senate meeting a great success. Your online training and one-on-one coaching were invaluable. I followed your advice with the bookends, slowed my speaking, and was able to assist some Senators when they had to use Robert’s Rules. I was nervous, but after working with you, I had the tools needed to run a productive meeting. I am so glad that I found you.”
—G. Sandoval, PhD, President, University Senate, University of Oregon
