A majority of meeting planners think small groups are far more productive than larger-scale counterparts, according to a recent poll.
More than 55% said they believed the biggest advantage of small meetings over large groups is that they are more productive.
Second in the poll at 22% was the idea that small meetings are easier to plan with fewer people to keep track of.
Small meetings offer other benefits, according to Laurie Sharp, president of the California-based Sharp Events. These include the level of creativity, personalization and interaction among attendees.
The survey came out of Web cast called “Bigger Isn’t Always Better: Learn How and Where to do Small to Midsize Meetings Right.”
