Set the stage (“If a meeting is worth having, it’s worth setting
up for.”)
-
Think about the seating arrangements. Any setup that encourages dialogue
(circle, oval, horseshoe) is better than a "theatre-style" arrangement
with rows.
-
Put key points on chart paper, and hang them up to set the tone for the
next meeting
-
Have a designated person keep public minutes on board or chart paper
-
Write proposals on the board (or chart paper) as they are made. Don’t
depend on people to keep proposals in their head.
