4. HAVE A PLAN
BEFORE THE MEETING
It is important to know why you are
scheduling a meeting.
Write a list of goals you want to accomplish
before the meeting and present it to the
attendees, you can even deliver notes before
of what the meeting should be about so that
everyone is on the same page.

5. GET EVERYONE
INVOLVED
DURING THE MEETING
Don't let some people take control, instead, create a
good atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable
expressing their opinions.
When there are many attendees, it can be difficult
not to talk about other things, If someone wants to
discuss a different topic make a list to write the topic
down and let everyone know that later the topic will
be addressed.

6. MAKE MINUTES
AFTER THE MEETING
The minute is a document in which the most
important elements of a meeting are written
down.
Its importance lies in the fact that it is an easy-
to-consult tool that synthesizes the most relevant
aspects of a meeting and, in turn, allows
monitoring all the activities and agreements
within the established terms.
