6. MEETING TIPS
Plan for at least 2 and up to 4 hours
Use facilitation techniques. Don’t let the meeting agenda get derailed.
Have a “parking lot” for issues that arise that may warrant further discussion
but are not appropriate for this meeting.
Stick to the agenda at all times if possible. Try to adjust for a future
meeting, but not the current meeting.
Encourage people to speak up. Make sure they know that this is not meant
to be punitive, but a collaborative process driving a continuous dialogue.
Do a “pulse check” every so often. Are we going to make a decision now, or should
we have a separate meeting?
Someone should always be jotting things down. You need to be capturing action
items, recommendations, and decisions during the meeting
