This half-day workshop will teach you how to take concise, accurate minutes and how to behave within a meeting so you can record key points and actions efficiently.
DurationSo, who wants to take the minutes? It’s a question that guarantees lots of fidgeting, shuffling and looking down.
The minute-taker, however, plays a key role in ensuring the successful outcome of a meeting. When done correctly, it’s an influential and respected position. But it can be a stressful experience and many find it difficult to know what to put in and what to leave out. Getting it right first time can save your organisation a lot of time, effort and money.

This workshop will help you to:

Prepare for your role as minutetaker and agree responsibilities with the chair
Be visible and establish personal presence in the meeting room
Take accurate notes of key points and actions without feeling rushed
Challenge and check understanding during the meeting
Provide meeting attendees with a useful, timely document that adds value to the meeting.
Who should attend?
