  1. Pocket Book for Effective Meetings

  2. Introduction • Strategies for organizing and conducting effective meetings • Informational meetings • Collaborative decision making meetings • Committee on Special Education (CSE) • Enhance productivity • Unify a group • Help bring team members towards common goals or a vision • Outline objectives and/or common practices • Rituals and norms to guide facilitation of the various types of meetings school leaders conduct.

  3. Pareto Voting • Strategy used for prioritizing criteria, ideas, or issues • Based on Pareto’s Law, a principle used for business activity, is based on the idea of the trivial many and the critical few: the 80:20 rule. • Directions: • 1. Present the list of items generated from a brainstorming session, making sure that all items are clearly stated and understood. • 2. Determine the number of votes each group member will be allowed to cast by multiplying the number of people in the group by 0.20, rounding up if needed. • 3. Conduct a brief review of what criteria should be considered in determining the best options from those presented. • 4. Have participants then vote on the items presented. • 5. The items that receive the most votes are the ones which will most likely have the greatest impact based on the choices presented.

  4. Fist-To-Five • When a group comes to consensus on a matter, it means that everyone in the group can support the decision • Values from 0-5 to express their level of agreement with a proposed solution or understanding of a problem • Directions: • Closed Fist - A no vote - a way to block consensus. • 1 fingers- “I still need to discuss certain issues and suggest changes that should be made.” • 2 fingers- “I am more comfortable with the proposal but would like to discuss some minor issues.” • 3 fingers-  “I’m not in total agreement but feel comfort- able to let this decision or a proposal pass without further discussion.” • 4 fingers- “I think it’s a good idea/decision and will work for it.” • 5 fingers- “It’s a great idea and I will be one of the leaders in implementing it.”
