Tips for Using the Team Meeting Agenda

• List the Presenters from top to bottom in the order of their presentations so people can tell when their presentations will be coming up
• Choose a format for the Time Allotted and remain consistent to avoid confusion.
• If the group will not be using Time Allotments, a good practice is listing Presenter in the order of importance for the topics covered. Verify the order with the Facilitator.
• The team meeting agenda can be used as an invitation for people who need to attend. Add their names to the document and deliver a copy to them with a brief note that they should contact the facilitator with any questions (or whatever the company’s policy or preference.)
• Many teams including their agenda with their official notes as part of their proof of what was discussed in the meeting.
• Keep completed agendas in a single folder at a single location. This gives a common reference point. And these old documents become templates for repetitive meetings with only minor changes.
