Within a business setting meetings are necessary for solving specific problems, getting an overview of the available possibilities and making the right decisions. The effectiveness and usefulness of meetings, as well as the satisfaction of its participants can be improved by adopting planning, organization and management techniques for meetings. Every business meeting mostly includes business clients and employees. Meetings are held for information, counselling and similar purposes. Regardless of whether the meeting has a business-related or informative function, it should not last more than an hour and a half (since after this timeframe has expired the participants lose interest and stop following the course of the meeting). In addition to the types of meetings and modes of carrying out meetings (the roles of meeting chairman and meeting participants) this paper also discusses the work mode differences between upper-level-management meetings (strategic level) and lower-level-management meetings (operational level). On the one hand, at lower-level meetings employees/teams are informed about specific organizational changes. According to these changes teams are assigned their work activities. On the other hand, at upper-level-management meetings the chief officers of an organization decide on important matters or pass decision within the organization (or in cooperation with external cooperatives/clients), thus affecting the organization as a whole. A functioning link between upper and lower-level management is necessary for the functioning of the whole organization. When everyone within the organization knows what their job is, then the organization can do business successfully.
