It has a super power (yes, I\u2019m a Marvel fan) called Behavioral Analytics that helps you break through the real barrier that divides unproductive, time=wasting meetings from productive ones \u2013 the behavior of meeting participants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here\u2019s what makes ConvoLens unique <\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>It\u2019s the only way to specifically address the biggest factor that causes meetings to succeed or fail: the interactions of people in the meeting.<\/li>\n<li>Unlike other assessments, it focuses on direct behavioral observations versus self-reports or individual perceptions.<\/li>\n<li>It provides insights at both the group and the individual level.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This means that you \u2013 as team leader, project manager, facilitator, consultant, or coach \u2013 can not only pinpoint what the team as a whole needs to work on, but also identify which individual participants are modeling productive meeting behavior and which ones may be holding the group back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About that super power . . .<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ConvoLens is powered by Behavioral Analytics, a way of understanding peoples\u2019 behavior in a meeting, or any group discussion. The method was pioneered by Harvard Professor and social psychologist Robert Bales. Bales called it Interaction Analysis, and it\u2019s been used in many different work environments for decades.<\/p>\n<p>Historically, Bales\u2019s method required recording meetings \u2013 and for the meeting observer to take a chunk of time after the meeting to integrate and analyze his or her data. With the web-based ConvoLens application, we\u2019ve made this tracking easy to do in real time as the meeting is happening.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3274 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/contemporaryleadership.com\/staging\/1870\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Convolens1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"975\" height=\"329\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you ready to make your breakthrough?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you use ConvoLens, you first determine which behaviors or interactions within the group are most important to focus on.

Next, an observer watches the group and uses the ConvoLens app to categorize individual participant\u2019s interactions as they occur. For example, the observer might note every time a participant asks a question, advocates for a specific point of view, or interrupts team members.<\/p>\n<p>The resulting data produces a picture of how the group functions.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s through good interaction that information is shared, problems, get solved, and decisions get made \u2013 and the best agendas or collaboration tools just can\u2019t make up for poor interactions.
