A business
associate and I had a terrific 121 meeting earlier this week. Where was it, you
might ask? In my office, over the phone. And It worked very well.
During our
conversation, we both resolved to do more 121’s over the phone, and we want to encourage
our BNI partners to do likewise!
Here are
some reasons why phone meetings might be better for you:
1. They save travel time and expenses. From
my location, a round-trip to Concord
2. It is easier to carve out one
concentrated hour from our busy schedules than it is to find time for a
cumulative 2 ½ hour meeting.
3. In most cases, and particularly with
121’s, phone meetings are much easier to schedule and conduct.
4. Phone meetings are far more
efficient. If you conduct them properly, there are fewer interruptions and
distractions.
As far as my coaching method is
concerned, I have performed over-the-phone coaching services
(in addition to personal meetings) for over 20 years, and I have found them
very much to my liking.
If you have
yet to try this method in your professional circles, I encourage you to give it
a shot! Who knows, it might just free up your time to do more 121’s.
