Conducting a meeting
A committee meeting should be structured, efficient and participatory. The person chairing the meeting ensures that all members receive an agenda in advance, that the objectives of the meeting are achieved, that all participants are involved in the discussions and that the resolutions are recorded. As a “time-keeper”, he/she makes sure the meeting starts and ends on time. As a rule, the chairperson of the executive committee chairs the committee meetings. However, the meeting may also be chaired by another person or in rotation by all members of the executive committee.
