Green Room - 2025
Feb. 20, 2025 | "Meet with Success: Evidence-Based Ways to Create Effective, Engaging, and Inclusive Meetings"
- Steven Rogelberg, Ph.D., organizational psychologist, University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill
American employees attend approximately 55 million meetings a day. While some professionals think of meetings as draining, well-conducted meetings can be places of personal and team gain.
Delta Dental hosted our first in-person Green Room event with Steven Rogelberg, a nationally sought-after meeting expert. We want to thank everyone who participated and engaged in the presentation. He provided insightful information on how to make meetings more productive and engaging. For more tips on making meetings more effective visit Rogelberg's website.
