A committee without a process is a meeting. This gives it an agenda built from what is waiting, papers circulated in advance, and minutes with actions that get chased.
What's Included
- An agenda built from the queue not assembled by hand.
- Papers circulated in advance so decisions are informed.
- Decisions and dissent recorded which matters later.
- An assistant that drafts the papers and the minutes.
How To Use
- Build the agenda from what is genuinely waiting on a decision.
- Circulate papers in advance or the meeting becomes a briefing.
- Record dissent as well as the decision. It matters in hindsight.
- Chase actions between meetings, not at the next one.
