Speaker 1: how it Belonging begins with us dot org. Brought to

30
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: you by the AD Council. Good morning, This is Laura.

31
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to the New Corner Office, the podcast where we

32
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: share strategies for thriving in the new world of work

33
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: where location and ours are more flexible than in the past.

34
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: Today's tip is to let the first five minutes of

35
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: a video conference be like the overture for the meeting.

36
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: Pick up the major themes and set the tone in

37
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: a compressed way, and you'll create a more cohesive and

38
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: productive whole. If you're like a lot of people, this December,

39
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: you'll watch The Nutcracker, the mesmerizing story ballet set to

40
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: Tchaikowski's beloved music. Of course, this year you might be

41
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: watching from the couch instead of in a grand theater,

42
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: but still from the moment the music begins, listeners are

43
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: transported to a Christmas party at Clara's house, a battle

44
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: between soldiers and mice, and the magical land of the suites.

45
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: The Nutcracker begins with the miniature overture, which were introduced

46
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: to some of the themes and instruments will hear again later.

47
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: Many different ballets or operas begin this way. Composers know

48
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: that how we begin is how we go, and a

49
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: good overture is a preview of what's to come. You

50
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: can do something similar to start your grand productions, otherwise

51
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: known as your meetings. Here's what I mean. The first

52
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: few minutes of a meeting are seldom focused on the

53
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: exact core question that you intend to address. They are

54
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: the opener, but they also set the tone and shouldn't

55
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: be treated as a throat clearing throw away moment where

56
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: everyone mumbles something about the weather. Treat it strategically. This

57
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: overture can prepare people for a great session. So step one,

58
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: think about it. An orchestra doesn't just sit down and

59
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: see what happens, and neither should you. Second, find a

60
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: way into your main topic that's in a slightly varied form.

61
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: So for instance, if you're talking about themes for an

62
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: upcoming virtual conference, you might ask people to share one

63
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: cool thing they've experienced in a recent virtual conference or webinar.

64
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: You can put this question on the agenda so people

65
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: aren't stomped, well unless they didn't look at the agenda,

66
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: in which case, don't have those people go first. If

67
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: you're getting feedback on a grant proposal for a summer

68
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: youth program, everyone might share a thirty second summer job

69
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: memory or a camp memory or something along those lines.

70
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: And Third, you want people to act in the overture

71
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: as they will in the rest of the meeting. And

72
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: those two examples, people were going to be asked for ideas,

73
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: so you want to get them sharing ideas. And even

74
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: more importantly, you want everyone sharing ideas within rules going

75
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: around the room in turn time limited, and with people

76
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: getting used to hearing all voices, everyone else is getting

77
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: background on people's perspectives. They are actively listening. That sets

78
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: the tone exactly as you want the meeting to proceed. If,

79
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: on the other hand, you want people's ideas, but you

80
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: start the meeting with a five minute diet tribe against

81
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: something completely unrelated, well people are going to be furtively

82
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: cleaning out their inbox and good luck getting ideas later.

83
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: How we start is how we go. An overture doesn't

84
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 1: last forever. It is just a few minutes, but a

85
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 1: well executed overture establishes that you have gathered for a purpose,

86
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: The meeting has been thought through as a coherent whole,

87
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: and you have expectations for the group. Maybe not to

88
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: play a glockenspield or dance like the sugar culmb Ferry,

89
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: but everyone will perform their rules and concert together and

90
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: create something really cool as a result. And when it

91
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: comes to meetings, that is music to my years. In

92
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: the meantime, this is aur Thanks for listening, and here's
