Improving the effectiveness of meetings in small groups. Part 2. Non-standard approaches to the problem

Main approaches to the problem of the improvement of staff meetings efficiency have been classified. As opposed to traditional approaches described in the first part of this work, non-standard approaches to the problem of the improvement of meetings efficiency in small groups have been considered. Special attention has been paid to psychology of small groups, to motivation methods, and to the theory of group decision-making. A short review of meeting types has been offered. New research topics have been described, which may contribute to the improvement of meetings efficiency.
