4. IDENTIFY THE PURPOSE OF
THE MEETING
Do you need to make a decision,
solve a problem, rally the troops, or
inform your team about a new
initiative?
Clarifying the purpose of your
meeting is the first and most
important planning step—this will
drive all of the other elements of
your prep.

5. ORGANIZE THE
INFORMATION
Prep and publish any supporting
information early so it can be reviewed
by the attendees ahead of the meeting.

page technical spec if the first version
they see is the monster hard copy you
hand out at the start.

6. ACTION PLAN
An important meeting
management tip to learn is to
summarize at the end of each
discussion point and at the end of
the meeting. Set out and make a
action plan and action schedules,
and your implementation plan
and assignments. Then have
everybody in the meeting agree
on what has been decided.
