Your contribution in the meetings
- Take an active role.
- Listen and react.
- It is better to say nothing than to say something which will not be seen as 'positive' by the others.
- Prepare beforehand and try to get involved in the agenda.
- Propose things that others will be excited about.
- Be active in the discussion.
- Act on them by asking your boss to let you look after the issue/project yourself.
Meetings are an important gathering of the decision makers and employees. Sticking out in a good way will help you in being assigned important projects and in leaving a good impression. Meetings are an opportunity for managers to compare employees directly against one another.
