This practical guide to facilitating planning meetings will enable you to effectively jump-start your projects and lead to success.Rigorous planning is vital to your project execution and success. Projects are often multifunctional, requiring input from various stakeholders.

This book will show you how to do it right.How to Facilitate Productive Project Planning Meetings is a guide to help you plan your projects by showing you how to effectively facilitate productive face-to-face kickoff sessions (both in person and virtual) and ongoing planning meetings.
