Meeting Agenda Template

[bartco]

Anyone willing to share a meeting agenda template that works for you?

[jtabbi]

I have an meting agenda mindmap in MindManager format - if you use that software I will gladly share it with you.

If you don't use Mindmanager you could download a 30 day trial or the viewer from www.mindjet.com.

If you use MS Word, there are a bunch of decent templates on their Microsoft Office Online site.

I have a bunch, if you're interested. Here are a few:

From "Organize Your Work Day In No Time":

o don't plan a meeting without being clear about why you need to meet
o always have an agenda for every meeting
o consider assigning roles in each meeting, and encourage everyone to participate
o create standard meeting guidelines to ensure effective participation
o don't let your action items get lost in your meeting notes: add them to your own task list
o bring your laptop to meetings and take meeting notes electronically
