Running a Meeting LITERACY · 8TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Most meetings fail before they start, because nobody decided what they were for. A meeting needs a purpose that requires people in the same room, an agenda circulated in advance with times against items, and only the people who are needed. Start on time regardless of who is missing, since waiting punishes the punctual. Keep discussion to the item, park anything else on a visible list to be handled later, and stop the meeting at the scheduled end even if items remain, because overrunning trains people to plan for it. The only output that matters is decisions and actions, each with a named owner and a date, circulated within a day. A meeting with no decisions and no actions should have been an email. Questions: 1 What three things does a meeting need before it starts? 2 Why start on time regardless of who is missing? 3 What is the only output that matters? www.littleactivity.com 8th Grade · Literacy
