Usage of the word "in-person"

[Liqichao]

Hi everyone,

I am confused with the word 'in-person' and 'meets' in below sentence:
The Leadership Council meets via conference call approximately once a month and has one in-person meeting each year.

why meets here not meet?

in-person here means a meeting among each internal leadership council.

Thank you

meet=plural
meets=singular

Leadership, generally considered as singular.
