The destin® SolutionStrategic Meeting Management

It’s been four years since the Great Recession ended, but organizations are still recouping losses, adapting to evolving business practices and pressures,or preparing for an uncertain future. Understandably, the need to reduce costs and save wherever possible remains paramount. To this end,organizations feel pressured to improve visibility into all aspects of their business, including meetings management (51%). With or without greatervisibility, organizations feel pressured to see a return-on-investment (ROI) for their strategic meetings (44%). If strategic meetings are not helping theorganization grow, they’re missing an opportunity and need to be re-tuned. Finally, organizations need to integrate all aspects of meetings managementinto the process (42%), as an organization is only as strong as its weakest link.
