Meeting architecture

Meeting Architecture is the multidisciplinary profession of designing the content, form and processes in meetings, based on measurable objectives.
A Meeting Architect helps meeting owners and meeting organizers in four phases
1. Identify the objectives and write them down with measurable desired outcomes
2. Design the meeting in a way that it becomes most effective vis-à-vis the set objectives
3. Execute the meeting as a leader for the suppliers, monitoring if the design is executed as planned
4. Assessing results and reporting back to the meeting owner about the results and possible modifications for the next meeting
The discipline of meeting architecture uses existing knowledge from other disciplines, professions, industries and sciences.
