How To Chair A Difficult Meeting With Calm Authority
Pretty sure everyone knows the answer to that question. But if you’ve been living under a rock…
I have been wanting to interview somebody in regards to chairing meetings for a long time. It was only when I was sitting doom scrolling on my phone that the video above reappeared for it’s 5th Anniversary. I took a stab in the dark and contacted Jackie to ask for an interview. Thankfully she came back with a yes.
It was only as I watched her name appear on the podcast recording studio I began to wonder if this was actually the Jackie Weaver from the video or a random Jackie Weaver that happened to be on a village hall committee. Thankfully it was her.
It was a real joy to interview her for the Village Halls podcast. Whilst we talk about her life and what brought her to her work; the podcast focuses on meeting management.
We had plenty of laughs and the odd sidetracked story but essentially, it’s a must listen if you’re intae village halls.
