  5. Making the Agenda Work for You • Balance Time and Topic • Consider the order: • Priority topics • Topics likely to take extra time • Send out the agenda prior • Define the action items • Distribute support materials • Use Consent Calendar, as appropriate, for reports and simple approvals

  6. Common Errors We all Make • Too many topics, not enough time! • “Pop-up” agenda items at meeting • “Didn’t see that one coming…” Extended discussion time • “So, what do you need me to do?” • “Wow, that’s not what I heard!” • “Are we done yet?”

  7. Background to Successful Meetings • Great meetings don’t just happen. • Is it karma? Is it merely the “right mix of people”? • We can’t always predict the outcome of a meeting, but we can certainly have a significant role in guiding the process.

  8. Preparation work before the meeting Leadership during the meeting Oversight to assigned work after the meeting Essential Elements to a Successful Meeting

  9. Before the Meeting • Determine the type of meeting • Decide the purpose of this specific meeting and what you want to accomplish. • Plan and distribute the agenda • Review and distribute all related materials, including Consent Agenda items

  10. Before the Meeting (cont’d) • Meet with key stakeholders • Review action items from the previous meeting. • Anticipate potential conflict

  11. During the Meeting • Manage time (including starting and stopping) • Set the tone with welcomes and introductions • Review the agenda • Lead the discussion and keep it on track

  12. Ensure that “all voices are heard” Oversee the recording of the meeting Clarify work assignments, times lines and accountabilities Lead wrap-up and meeting evaluation During the Meeting (cont’d)

  13. Leading Effective Discussions • Open the Discussion • Listen • Ask for Clarification • Summarize Points • Test for Agreement • Close the Discussion

  14. Part A Nominal Group Technique: Generating Ideas • Define the task in the form of a question • Clarify the question that will provide both the purpose and the intended outcome of the discussion • Allow time to generate ideas. • List ideas without discussion as to whether they are “good” or “bad” • Clarify each of the ideas listed, make sure everyone understands the intent or wording.

  15. Part B Nominal Group Technique: Moving to Decision • Eliminate/combine overlap ideas • Use process to rank as a group • Reach conclusion based on group input • Check for “heart burn”.

  16. Remember… Consensus does not mean agreement Voting is not the same as data collection

  17. Working Towards Successful Consensus • Practice active listening • Encourage all team members to participate. • Seek out differences of opinion • Avoid quickly choosing a solution; understand the question first • Consider the time needed. • Check understanding.

  18. Strategies to Minimize Indecisiveness • Get the agenda out early. • Involve key decision-makers • Work on a series of decisions. This can help get to the “big picture”

  19. After the Meeting Effective minutes need to include the following elements: • The name of the meeting and the date, place and time • Who was in attendance A list of the agenda items covered • A summary of the motions or decisions • A BRIEF summary of key discussion points • Assignments: what is assigned, who is responsible and when it is due
