INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FACILITATORS (IAF) ENDORSES MEETINGSENSE SOFTWARE
Association Declares MeetingSense Preferred Tool For Optimized Meeting Facilitation
San Diego, CA—May 6, 2008—MeetingSense Software Corporation today announced that the foremost international group of professional facilitators, the IAF, has endorsed MeetingSense Software as a meeting information management application of choice. MeetingSense is easy-to-use software that empowers users to easily capture, summarize, distribute, and manage meeting information and action items through completion.
The IAF promotes, supports and advances the art and practice of professional facilitation through methods exchange, professional growth, practical research, collegial networking and support services. As such, their vision is to be a leading influence in the art and mastery of facilitation, while being a worldwide connection point between diverse members and partners and providing an ongoing global exchange of facilitation expertise.
The association tested MeetingSense and determined that it was the ideal solution for IAF members, and non-members alike, to efficiently capture, distribute, and manage meeting information and action items. With MeetingSense, any meeting organizer or facilitator is able to more efficiently capture all of the information exchanged in meetings, while giving them a mechanism for automating meeting notes and action item distribution and follow up.
“As a professional group of facilitators, it is imperative that members have an effective way to facilitate meetings,” said Tammy Adams, IAF Board Member. “Not only can meeting leaders use MeetingSense to better facilitate and manage their meetings – but it will also help them and their clients save up to 7 hours of previously wasted time per week, per user. The IAF wanted to help others by endorsing MeetingSense as our meeting productivity tool of choice.”
“By adopting MeetingSense as their standard, The International Association of Facilitators is helping professional meeting facilitators to more effectively do the already difficult job of facilitating meetings, along with meeting information exchange and management,” said Hannon Brett, President, MeetingSense Software. “We’re thrilled that the premiere global organization for professional meeting facilitators is both using and endorsing MeetingSense as their meeting productivity tool of choice. We know that professionals and non-professionals alike can leverage MeetingSense to help make their meeting information management vastly more effective.”
