38
How to have effective meetings

• Don't meet unless you have a purpose. Avoid a
  meeting if your purpose is unclear or if theres
  a better way to accomplish your purpose.
• Set clear objectives for the meeting. Before
  planning the meeting agenda, determine the
  objectives of the meeting. The more concrete your
  objectives, the more focused your agenda will be.
  Example, complete this sentence By the end of
  the meeting

39
How to have effective meetings

• Provide members an agenda beforehand. Your agenda
  needs to include a one-sentence description of
  the objectives and a listing of what will be
  discussed.
• Follow the agenda closely during the meeting.
  Dont deviate or discuss anything that is not
  included unless led by the Spirit.
• Help members to prepare ahead. Give members
  something to prepare for before the meeting. If
  you do that the meeting will take on a new
  significance for each group member.

40
How to have effective meetings

• Assign action items if applicable. Don't finish
  any meeting without an action point, i.e.
  something that the members will do after the
  meeting.
• Examine what happened during the meeting. Don't
  leave the meeting without assessing what took
  place and making a plan to improve the next time.
  Be open to improvements or corrections.
• Inform the group of your next meeting if
  applicable. Be sure that your members know when
  and where will be the next meeting.
