   Staying on Track

   Let’s have a chat about what to do when your meeting falls completely out of order. I was asked how to keep on topic in a meeting. She said “I’ve been on a few committees where it didn’t matter, someone always veered off topic and the group had to be steered back.” Keep your meeting extremely formal Regularly review your committee charge Set an agenda Know how to get back on track Have your members check in with where they are before the meeting starts Know your committee If you are having a problem with your committee, please feel free to reach out to me directly, and we can chat about the specific problem you are seeing, and come up with a productive solution.

   My Story

   I’ve had a lot of people look at me like I was crazy when I’ve mentioned that I LOVE Parliamentary Procedure, and just as many ask me what it was. Only a handful have asked how I came to learn about it and love it so much. I have a list of potential topic ideas coming up, but if there is something you have a question about, or an issue you have run into, let me know. I would love to help you out on this show, and you never know, there is probably someone out there having the same problem as you.
