March Four: Meeting Rhythm

Imagine a game of “Family Feud.” The host says, “We asked 100 pastors and Christian leaders to name the first word that comes to mind when we say ‘meeting.’” The top responses are not likely to be, “stimulating,” “efficient” and “solution-oriented.” Many don’t have agendas. Most don’t have dedicated time to solving problems. Several don’t involve the right people (or, just as bad – involve the wrong people). Nearly all include tangential rambling at some point.

In March Four, you’ll learn about five different critical meeting types – the weekly leadership meeting, the monthly all-hands meeting, the 1-on-1 meeting, the quarterly/annual “Reset” meeting and the ad-hoc meeting. You’ll work through specific, purposeful agenda templates for each and emerge with a meeting rhythm that engages and inspires your team.

Using our proprietary and practical tools, you’ll answer these questions:

What are the key meeting types?
How and when do we meet – and who meets?
How do we construct a purposeful agenda?


As with all of our marches, we’ll help you think differently by applying concepts and principles from the world of business. In March Four, we’ll pull ideas from Pixar, Disney and Glassdoor among others.

 “The good news is that there is nothing inherent about meetings that makes them bad, and so it is entirely possible to transform them into compelling, productive and fun activities.”
