Schedule in advance. If it is not an emergency Cheap Joey Wendle Jersey , schedule one to two weeks in advance. Include start time, stop time and Topics. Prepare an Agenda, and stick to it.
Have a Theme . Focus on One to Three Topics, no more than that. On the Agenda Cheap Austin Meadows Jersey , include ten minutes for Open Discussion and feedback at the end of the meeting.
Start on Time, even if everyone is not present. Demonstrate respect for the people who show up on time and begin promptly. Individuals that come late can 'catch-up' when the meeting is concluded. Do not inconvenience the conscientious individuals who show up on time.
Establish the meeting moderator. One person is assigned to keep the meeting on track and on time.
If possible, schedule the staff meeting for a total of twenty minutes or less. This is based on ten minutes of Agenda discussion and ten minutes of staff feedback. Consider it a success if you conclude in less than 20 minutes, but allow flex time for meaningful conversation and feedback at the end of the meeting.
Take Meeting Notes Cheap Jake Smolinski Jersey , include Action Items and the Owners Responsible Person for each Action Item with a Due Date. Follow-up on Action Items and send out an update before the next staff meeting.
Is it working?
Staff Meetings should not be a burden to the moderator or the participants. It is intended to be an opportunity for important communication. The following are three creative exercises for measuring the effectiveness of your staff meetings.
Have a Standing Staff Meeting: Nobody is allowed to sit down until it is over. Can you do it? Does the meeting move along faster than normal or at the same speed?
Everyone is a Scribe: At the beginning of the meeting, provide instructions that each person will be responsible for documenting every comment, word for word, and distribute to the other participants. How does this impact the comments? Is everything shared verbally worth the time to type it? Are the comments worth sharing in documented form? Are there any comments shared in a staff meeting that would be embarrassing or inappropriate in print?
The One Week Survey: Send a quick survey one week after the staff meeting with three questions.
Q1) What was the main topic of the Staff meeting?
Q2) How does this relate to your responsibilities?
Q3) What is the most important topic that we did not discuss? ______________________________________________________
