As the #Strella business grows, our client and team meetings also expand. It’s not uncommon for me to have two or three meetings a day.

Each week, I meet one on one with the key members of my team to discuss the status of projects, brainstorm new ideas, and work to solve issues or challenges. We also have weekly or bi-monthly meetings with our clients. It’s beneficial to stay in front of people, especially in a remote business environment.

Fortunately, I’ve learned a few things to help ensure meetings are purposeful and stay on task. I want to share them with you in hopes they will empower you to hold remote meetings that serve you, your team members, and your clients exceptionally well.
