Shownotes
What makes a meeting productive instead of frustrating? In this Student Leadership Playbook episode of the Teen Exec Podcast, host Natalya Lucas teams up with her dad, Jeff Lucas, a college marketing instructor, to explore the essential skills every student leader needs to plan and run better meetings.
Together, they share the “five plus one rules” of successful meetings:
- Setting a clear agenda with goals
- Guiding discussion so everyone participates
- Following up with action steps
- Assigning roles like timekeeper and note taker
- Scheduling the next step before you leave
- And the bonus: not every problem needs a meeting!
You’ll hear real examples from student clubs, learn how AI can make planning and follow-ups easier, and pick up practical tools you can use right away.
If you’ve ever left a meeting feeling like nothing got done—or if you’re stepping into a leadership role and want to do better—this episode gives you a simple framework you can put into practice now.
