  • Guidelines for a successful meeting: We want to keep the meeting moving forward and to keep everyone interested and engaged.
    1. Let’s keep our comments shorter when many people want to speak. It’s courteous and you will hold people’s attention better.
    2. After you’ve asked a question, give others an opportunity to ask a question before you ask another.
    3. Let’s not talk over each other.
    4. Let’s keep side conversations to a minimum.
    5. If there’s a lot of discussion, we’ll raise hands to be called on to speak.
    6. Members will vote by raising their voting card.
