we can (hold / run) meetings more efficiently by selecting the appropriate venue depending on the objective of the meeting.

Would the meaning change if I use "run" instead of "hold"?

No real change in meaning, but I prefer "run"'. In both cases, meetings take place.

If you would be so kind as to hold my briefcase a minute, I can/could move this table.

that one might wonder if it would hold. Is this grammatical?

Can 2 people hold, as in hold each other, but without the "each other"? Does it lose its meaning?
