The “Basics” For Effective Meetings
6
DMAIC is a powerful methodology which will allow teams to significantly improve the processes on which they are working. However, in order for teams to efficiently use the tools and techniques associated with DMAIC, they must be able to work together effectively. Although not the focus of this class, we will briefly focus on the minimum requirements for effective meetings. Further training in effective meeting skills is provided in “Facilitating Teams through Change Projects” Training

Using N/3*, prioritize your brainstormed list Identify your top name
Close Exercise
Choose a spokesperson to report out
* N/3 is a prioritization technique used to narrow a large list down to the top priorities. The number of ideas (N) is divided by 3 (N/3) and team members get that number of votes to identify their top choices. All votes should not be put on one choice.
