Committee meetings

From SecularPortal

Committee meetings are important for making sure that everyone knows what is going on and making decisions where everyone gets to add their suggestions and ideas. They are also good for handing out work.

It helps to schedule regular committee meetings. This way you can keep them fairly short and everyone knows when they are. For example, at Leeds we hold a committee meeting each week in the hour before our regular Tuesday night meeting.

It is useful for everyone to have a chance to prepare for the issues being discussed at the meeting therefore it is useful to publish the agenda in advance.

Minutes

It is important to take minutes so you have a record of what was said and items to action. This does not need to be extensive but should contain the main points of the meeting and what each person has agreed to do. This can then be emailed round and used as a checklist when people are working out what they need to do. online casino
