Dr. Steven G. Rogelberg, an organizational psychologist, holds the title of Chancellor’s Professor at UNC Charlotte for distinguished national, international and interdisciplinary contributions.  He is an award-winning teacher and recipient of the very prestigious Humboldt Award for his research on meetings.

From Steven: There is an exciting evidence-based path forward for improving our meetings and making them more effective and inclusive.  Is it possible to achieve meeting perfection? Probably not, but with intentionality, leveraging the science, you can turn your meetings into efficient, engaging and inclusive events. While you can’t control other’s meetings, you control your own. You can make excellent meeting choices. You can be the example that you hope others will follow in promoting effectiveness and inclusion. Each meeting is your opportunity to do your small part in promoting team success and inclusion.  Let’s each commit to fixing our meetings, and making them better and more inclusive, one meeting at a time.
