Feedback
"I prepare for meetings using what I learned and use different methodics to desing meetings."
Long term effect
"I absolutely use what I learned! I keep to the schedule, try to ask for topics beforehand, divide tasks if the focus starts to slip, and keep the meeting clear."
"I take time to think meetings through. In the invitation, I write down the problem and talking points. That helps to clear my own thoughts, especially with difficult topics, when at first it isn't clear even to me how we're going to move forward."
"I use it and look up things from time to time. I pay much more attention to planning meetings."
