Have you ever attended a meeting and wondered later why you bothered to waste your time? Every person who participates has a role in making it a more effective meeting. How to identify and achieve meeting objectives and how to facilitate meetings will be the focus. We’ll also look at group formation, which occurs over and over again as some people join the group and others leave.
Morning Program: Making Decisions using Parliamentary Procedure
Parliamentary procedure is confusing, right? We’ll talk about how and when parliamentary procedure should be used.
OK, this sounds dry as dirt, right? Wrong. It's a fun exercise in building trail mix. What, you ask, does trail mix have to do with effective meetings? Well, 25 or so people will collectively decide how much of what goes into the trail mix. Raisin advocates will debate dried mango partisans as to which ingredient gets to be the highlight of the mix. Can consensus be reached? You'll never know unless you are there. Oh, and you get to eat the trail mix at the end, so how can you lose?
