Meeting Sense: The Chadberg Model a guide to efficient meetings, on all levels, in any culture – hinnat ja saatavuus

The Chadberg Scale is a new tool which align expectations among meeting participants to make communication as efficient as possible. This is important, especially in cross-cultural contexts. Sometimes we assume that the global dimension blurs the cultural differences. In reality, however, the differences appear even more clearly, not least in virtual meetings. Each meeting level in the Chadberg Scale is defined with its corresponding language usage, preparation, execution and follow-up. Our goal in each particular meeting are symbolized by a hot air balloon over a landscape. Depending on the level of pressure (level of necessity), and haze (level of clarity), these appear more or less clearly. When participants are aligned wit the meeting criteria, the meetings become efficient. The Chadberg Model comprises the Chadberg Scale. And the tools which enable the understanding of the various levels in theory and practice. Offshore English, aviation language and the cultural world map are examples of tools.
