We have made it easy for you to run your Pod meeting by creating a step-by-step checklist to guide you through your meeting.
Each week at the moment your meeting is scheduled to start the software updates the meeting checklist with each participants next tiny step and it's current status.
This means that you don't have to do any preparation before your meeting begins. As soon as you're meeting begins you simply click the 'Download meeting checklist' button on your Pod Dashboard.
Following this checklist and asking the questions provided will ensure that your meeting runs smoothly and that you and your Participants find your time together valuable.
There are six sections that make up a great Progress Pod meeting. These six sections are written on the top of the checklist along with a set of questions to ask during each section.
The six sections are:
1. Welcome and Update.
See the checklist.
2. The Next Tiny Step Accountability Section.
See the checklist.
>> What is the Next Tiny Step Method?
>> How to help your Participants identify their Next Tiny Step
3. Logging your Next Tiny Step.
After running hundreds of Progress Pod meetings we have discovered that if a participant doesn't log their Next Tiny Step during the meeting it is unlikely that they will log it. There is a back up process. After the meeting has finished the software checks to see who has not logged their Next Tiny Step and sends those Participants a reminder email.
>> How to enter your Next Tiny Step.
>> How to change your Next Tiny Step.
4. General Discussion.
5. Reminders/Notices.
6. The Final Question.
This question gives you (as the Leader) feedback on how valuable the meeting has been. The assumption behind the question is that when the Participant answers they are saying that the meeting has been useful, valuable and helpful. The biggest hint I can offer here is to only say "Thanks for sharing", and then move onto the next person. Do not add any other comments. Any other comments, regardless of how well meaning they seem, will only detract from the impact of what each participant shares.
